Nutty Oat Bliss Balls

Sometimes, we all need a little bliss—and these no-bake bliss balls deliver just that. Packed with wholesome ingredients and naturally sweetened, they're the perfect bite-sized treat to satisfy your sweet snack craving.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup pitted dates Medjool preferred
  • 1/2 cup pecans
  • 1/2 cup walnuts
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1/4 cup ground flax seed
  • 1/3 cup soy milk or other plant-based milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 ozs dark chocolate chopped

Method
 

  1. In the bowl of a food processor, add the pitted dates and nuts. Process until the mixture is broken down into small pieces and becomes sticky.
  2. Add the coconut, peanut butter, oats, flaxseed, and vanilla. Process again until the mixture looks uniform.
  3. Add the soy milk and continue processing until the mixture comes together—it should be moist and hold its shape. Add more milk if needed to achieve this consistency.
  4. Remove the blade and stir in the chocolate chunks.
  5. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined plate. If desired, coat the balls in a topping such as cacao powder or shredded coconut. Refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until firm.

Notes

Leftovers: These can be stored in the fridge for up to two weeks or frozen for up to 3 months
Add-ons: Instead of the dark chocolate chunks, feel free to sub 1/3 cup chocolate chips or goji berries or dried mulberries.
