Making your own snacks doesn’t have to complicated, can really be super simple and fuss free like this no blender required bliss balls. They are the perfect snack on the go or the perfect sweet treat for kids lunch boxes. You can make a huge batch and just store them in the fridge to guarantee you will always have healthy snacks on hand. I loved playing around with different coating as they add textures and different flavours but even “naked” they will still be totally delicious.
To add extra goodness I have used Udo’s Choice Untimate Oil which is a blend of flax, sesame and sunflower seeds oils as well as oils from evening primrose, rice germ, oat germ and coconut. This oil is rich in omega 3-6-9 and is completely suitable for vegans.

Makes about 10-12 balls depending on the size
Ingredients:
1 cup of ground almond
1 cup of oat flour
2 tablespoons of rice malt syrup
3 tablespoon of runny peanut butter
2 tablespoons of raw cacao powder
1 tablespoon of Udo’s Choice Ultimate Oil
A pinch of sea or pink Himalayan salt
For coating:
You can leave the balls as they are or if you want to add a bit of crunch and extra flavour I like to coat them in a mix of the following:
- shredded coconut
- Cacao nibs
- Raspberry powder
In a bowl mix together the ground almond, raw cacao, salt and the oat flour. Give it a good mix and add in the peanut butter, rice malt syrup and Udo’s choice oil. Mix everything together with a spoon until you have a sticky mixture. Roll the mixture into balls and coat them in the shredded coconut/cacao nibs/ raspberry powder.
Place the balls in the fridge to set for at least 1 hour and enjoy! Store them in the fridge or freezer in an airtight container. In the freezer will really last for months!
