Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
2 tsp pumpkin spice
pinch salt
1/4 cup pure pumpkin purée
2 tbsp cashew butter (and/or raw almond butter)
2 tbsp honey
optional: white chocolate
Method
- In a food processor, blend oats, pumpkin spice, and salt until oats are the size of coarse sand.
- Add pumpkin, cashew butter, and honey, and pulse until mixture comes together.
- Roll mixture into balls.
- Place in the fridge to firm up and allow flavours to develop. For best results, refrigerate overnight.
- For optional white chocolate coating: Melt white chocolate in 15 second intervals, stirring after each interval, until melted and silky. Dip prepared bliss balls into chocolate then place on a plate lined with parchment paper. Chill in the fridge until coating has hardened.
Notes:
- For a vegan version use 1 1/2 tbsp pure maple syrup instead of the 2 tbsp honey.
- Blend the oats to your preferred texture. You may like blending the oats only a bit and having a chunkier texture to the balls, or you may want the oats completely blended for a smooth, doughy texture.
- Bliss balls can also be placed in the freezer, then put into you lunch bag in the morning for the perfect snack at work or school.
- For jack-o-lantern style bliss balls, dip the entire ball into chocolate and allow to cool. Using a sharp knife, careful cut out designs to reveal the orange that lies underneath!
