Pecan and Orange Bliss Balls

Rich, tasty and healthy snack!

Another bliss ball recipe! I love these as they are so versatile you can combine so many tasty flavours together.

Pecan and orange is a great combination, it reminds me of winter and Christmas and they taste so dense and rich but not too sweet.

Definitely a go to snack between meals for me.

How do we do it?

---

Whip these up in about 10 minutes for your day time snacks for when those cravings hit!

There are so many things to can add to these bliss balls, I’ll be sharing lots of different recipes for you to try.

Recipe - Makes 7-8

• 15 Dates (use around 10 if using Medjool dates)

• 1/2 Cup Pecans

• 1/2 Cup Oats

• Juice of 1/2 Orange

Method

1. Add all dry ingredients to a blender or food processor and pulse until well mixed.

2. Slowly drip in the juice from the orange whilst blending. Ensure the mixture doesn't become too wet.

3. The mixture should have a dough like consistency, if it is too dry you can always add in more juice from the other half of the orange. If it seems too wet you can always add a few more pecans or oats.

4. When you have the desired consistency take a large tablespoon at a time and roll into balls using your hands.

5. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

6. Store in the fridge in an air tight container ready for snacking!

Tips

It’s really important you only add a little of the orange juice to the mixture at a time as they can easily become too wet and therefore too sticky to roll!

Medjool dates are by far the best but they can be expensive. I have found a great alternative at Tesco in the fruit and veg aisle.

They sell a large box of natural dates for around £3.10, the brand is Jordan River. They often have that soft and squidgy medjool date feel, they taste great and are good value.

Go gluten free on the oats to make this snack even healthier!
