Valentine’s Day Bliss Balls

These bliss balls are perfect as not only free of sugar, dairy, and gluten but also infused with warm spices for a cozy and romantic touch on Valentine’s Day (or any time of the year! A great little recovery snack post exercise too… ;).

Ingredients:

• 100 gm almond flour
• 60 gm coconut flour
• 60 gm melted coconut oil
• 55 gm almond butter
• 60 gm unsweetened shredded coconut
• 60 gm cup cacao powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon cardamom
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 teaspoon stevia powder (more or less to taste)

Method

• In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, melted coconut oil, almond butter, stevia and shredded coconut. Mix well until a dough-like consistency forms.
• Add cacao powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon, cardamom, and sea salt to the mixture. Continue mixing until all ingredients are well incorporated.
• Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more stevia.
• Once the mixture is well combined, refrigerate for about 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
• After refrigeration, roll the mixture into bite-sized balls using your hands.
• Optionally, roll the bliss balls in additional shredded coconut or cacao powder for a decorative touch.
• Place the bliss balls back in the refrigerator for at least an hour to firm up.
• Serve and enjoy these gorgeous, guilt-free Valentine’s Day Bliss Balls with your loved ones!

PS: I like to freeze mine and eat them straight out of the freezer!

You’re welcome 💝
