Ingredients
- 12 pieces Medjool dates
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 3/4 cup Desiccated coconut
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon Sea salt
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Remove the pits from the Medjool dates and place them in a bowl filled with warm water to soften for about 10 minutes.
Step 2
In a food processor, blend the raw almonds until they achieve a coarse, crumbly texture. Avoid over-processing to prevent turning them into almond butter.
Step 3
Drain the dates and add them to the food processor along with the desiccated coconut, chia seeds, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
Step 4
Pulse the mixture until it becomes well combined and starts to form a sticky dough. If it's too dry, add one tablespoon of water at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
Step 5
Using a tablespoon, scoop out the mixture and roll it between your palms to form small, even balls.
Step 6
Optional: Roll each ball in additional desiccated coconut for an extra coconutty coating.
Step 7
Place the bliss balls on a tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Step 8
Store the bliss balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, or in the freezer for up to a month.
