Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 150 g sunflower seeds (1 cup)
- 150 g dates (1 cup)
- 150 g raisins (1 cup)
- 20 g cocoa or cacao powder (¼ cup)
- 15 g coconut oil (1 tablespoon)
For Rolling
- Desiccated coconut
- Cocoa powder
- Ground almonds
Instructions
- Prepare the mixture: Place the sunflower seeds, dates, raisins, cocoa powder, and coconut oil into a food processor, ensuring the desiccated coconut or other rolling coatings are set aside for later.
- Blend the ingredients: Blitz the mixture in the food processor, being patient as it takes about 5 minutes for the ingredients to combine into a sticky, cohesive mixture suitable for rolling.
- Form balls: Use a spoon to scoop portions of the mixture and roll them between your palms into small balls of desired size.
- Coat the balls (optional): Roll each ball in desiccated coconut, cocoa powder, or ground almonds to add texture, flavor, and an attractive finish.
- Chill: Place the balls in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to firm up and enhance the flavors.
Notes
- Make sure your dates are soft; if they are dry, soak them in warm water for 10 minutes prior to blending.
- You can store these bliss balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
- These make an excellent pre- or post-workout snack due to their energy-boosting natural sugars and healthy fats.
- Feel free to customize the rolling coatings to include crushed nuts or seeds for added crunch.
