Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup nut butter (like almond or cashew)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 6 tablespoons water
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of rolled oats, 1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 cup of shredded coconut.
- Use a whisk to mix these dry ingredients thoroughly until evenly blended.
- Add 1/2 cup of maple syrup and 1/2 cup of nut butter to the dry mixture.
- Using a spatula or wooden spoon, stir everything together until it forms a cohesive dough-like consistency.
- In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of chia seeds with 6 tablespoons of water.
- Let this sit for about five minutes until it becomes gel-like.
- Once ready, fold this chia mixture into your dough until well combined.
- With clean hands, scoop out about one tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into balls—aim for about 1 inch in diameter.
- Repeat this process until all the mixture is shaped into bliss balls.
- Place your formed bliss balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes.
- Once chilled, serve these delightful little bites on a platter or store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
Notes
Store bliss balls in airtight container.
No reheating needed; enjoy chilled.
Serve with fresh fruit garnish.
Use desiccated coconut for best texture.
