Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup dried raspberries (soaked in warm water for 10 minutes, then drained)
- 1 cup shelled pistachios (finely chopped)
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: In a food processor, combine the soaked and drained raspberries, finely chopped pistachios, rolled oats, honey, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until the mixture transforms into a sticky, uniform dough.
- Shape into Balls: Using your hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. Place each ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Bake the shaped bliss balls for 10-12 minutes or until they turn golden brown and become fragrant.
- Cool and Enjoy: Remove the bliss balls from the oven and allow them to cool completely. Enjoy as a healthy snack or dessert.
Notes
- Drain the soaked raspberries thoroughly to prevent excess moisture in the mixture.
- If the dough feels too dry, add a bit more honey or coconut oil to improve binding.
- If the mixture is too sticky to handle, refrigerate it for about 30 minutes before shaping into balls.
- For variations, roll the bliss balls in shredded coconut or cocoa powder, or sprinkle sea salt on top for a sweet-savory twist.
- Store the bliss balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
