Servings 12

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup cashew (or any other nut) butter
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries, chopped
  • 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1/4 cup almonds, chopped
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup protein or collagen peptides powder
  • 1 orange, juice and zest

Chocolate Drizzle

  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl, mix together cashew butter, honey, orange juice and zest.
    Add oats, chopped almonds, desiccated coconut, protein powder and dried cranberries. Stir to combine.
    Roll into 12 equal sized snack balls (about 2 tablespoons each).

White Chocolate Drizzle

  • Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in small dish and microwave with 20 second bursts stirring between each one until melted and smooth.
    Or use double boiler method - (pot of boiling water with a bowl resting on top) melt the chocolate chips and the coconut oil together.
    Drizzle chocolate over the tops of the bliss balls using a spoon. Place in the freezer until the chocolate has set (about 5 minutes).
    Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or freezer for up to 3 months.
    I like to store them in between sheets of parchment paper so they don’t stick together. If fully frozen let sit out for a few minutes for better texture.
