Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups Medjool dates, pitted
  • ¾ cup old fashioned gluten-free oats
  • 3 tablespoons natural almond butter, well stirred
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2-3 pinches sea salt
  • 2-3 teaspoons water

Instructions

  • Place dates and oats in the bowl of a food processor. Process until oats are broken down into medium chunks.
  • Add almond butter, vanilla, and salt and process until oats are in very small pieces and the mixture has become thick.
  • Add one teaspoon of water to the mixture and process again. Test the mixture and see if it sticks together when you squeeze it with your fingers. If the mixture is still dry, add one or two more teaspoons of water until you can squeeze the mixture together with your hand and it holds together.
  • Scoop dough with a tablespoon and roll it into a ball with your hands. Place bliss balls onto a baking sheet or cookie sheet. Place baking sheet in the fridge for at least 20 minutes to set before transferring balls to an airtight container.

Notes

To store: Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
