Almond and Pumpkin Seed Bliss Balls

by Katrina - The Organised Housewife June 14, 2019October 29, 2020
June 14, 2019October 29, 2020

An incredibly quick and nutritious bliss balls recipe that’s packed with antioxidants, magnesium and fibre. They’re so quick and easy to make, even the kids can do it (these were made by my 14 year old daughter!).

My 14 year old stumbled upon this delicious recipe by mixing together a few things she found in the pantry, and the whole family was blown away with just how yummy these bliss balls turned out! 

Healthy and delicious almond and pumpkin seed bliss balls

Although these bliss balls can be stored for up to a week in the fridge, they certainly didn’t last that long in my house.

Almond and Pumpkin Seed Bliss Balls Recipe

The pumpkin seeds in this recipe mean these bliss balls are packed fulled of valuable nutrients, are high in antioxidants, very high in magnesium, and high in fibre too! Unlike many bliss balls which are soft and smooth, these almond and pumpkin seed bliss balls have a morish crunch. 

Almond and Pumpkin Seed Bliss Balls

Serves: 20

Prep Time

Total Time

10 mins

10 mins

Ingredients
  • 24 medjool dates, seeds removed
  • 250g almonds
  • 6 tablespoons desiccated coconut
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients into a food processor, process on full speed for 30-40 seconds or until nuts have chopped and mixture combines together (this may take a little while, keep blending until it happens).
  2. Roll the mixture into small bite-sized balls.
  3. Store in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Hi
I have a few comments to make about this recipe:
1. It was expensive to make!
2. The mejool dates at my supermarket were huge, and they cost $10
3. Are you sure it is 1 tbs vanilla extract? It seems quite a lot, I used 1 Tsp
4. There was a strong maple syrup flavour in the finished balls, not sure how to keep the moisture and lower the syrup content
5. This recipe made HEAPS, I’m used to bliss ball recipes making half this amount

Hi Melissa, most bliss ball recipes are expensive as the Medjool dates and nuts do cost a bit, but you tend to find this whe you make your own healthy snacks, least you can control the sugar content. You could have the amount, as you say it does make alot. This feeds our family of 5 for snacks for a week. you could reduce the maple syrup and vanilla, I don’t think it will effect the moisture at all as the dates have quite a bit of moisture in themselves. Hope you enjoyed the bliss balls 🙂

Hi,
For the pumpkin seed, do i need to roast it first? Or just leave it raw?

The pumpkin seeds don’t need to be roasted in this recipe – although you can roast them if you prefer 🙂

I thought about introducing my review of the Miele I thought about introducing my review of the Miele Triflex HXI Pro with a vacuum joke… but then realised they always suck (sorry, I couldn’t help myself – lol!)
 
In all honesty though, I have a lot of boxes I like ticked when picking the perfect vacuum cleaner. Visit the link in my bio to see if Miele’s first handstick vacuum managed to tick all these boxes for me!

My day has consisted of a moment of binge watching My day has consisted of a moment of binge watching Firefly Lane. Then running kids around. 

I’m putting a candle on to sit for a moment. Then it involves more mums taxi. I’ll cherish these moments though cause they will stop soon enough. Then what am I going to do when I’m not running kids around? Ooh the thought 🤪
White Chocolate and Cranberry Cookies 🍪⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This recipe was contributed by Tracey (a lovely member of our community!). She suggests using an ice cream scoop to shape the cookies, which should give them a lovely rippled texture on top. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The base recipe without the white chocolate and cranberries can be used for any alternative ingredients like dark choc bits and macadamias. The full recipe is on my blog! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PS - I would suggest adjusting the sugar quantities to your own tastes if you prefer cookies to be less sweet! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
