How to Make Coconut Almond Bliss Balls

First, be sure to remove the pits from your medjool dates.
Then, add raw almonds, shredded coconut, medjool dates, vanilla, and salt to a food processor. Process the ingredients until a sticky, nearly-smooth dough is formed.
Next, scoop the dough into 1-inch rounds. Use clean hands to roll the dough into balls.
After, roll some (or all) bliss balls in shredded coconut. See additional decorative options in the “Kaylie’s Tips” section below.
Finally, enjoy the coconut almond bliss balls. Good luck trying to eat just one!
Kaylie’s Tips:
- Remove pits from the medjool dates. Be sure your dates are pit-free before adding to the food processor.
- Use fresh medjool dates. If possible, soft/fresh medjool dates are ideal for this recipe. However, if you only have access to dry/hard dates, no worries. Soak the dates in hot water for 10 minutes, then drain the water completely. Pat the dates dry with a paper towel and proceed with the recipe.
- Use shredded coconut. Make sure you are using shredded coconut, otherwise known as desiccated coconut, instead of coconut flakes.
- Decorate the bliss balls! These coconut almond bliss balls are perfectly tasty all on their own. However, you can roll them in shredded coconut, hemp seeds, chia seeds, cocoa powder, or even drizzle melted chocolate on top.
- Store bliss balls in an airtight container. Keep in the pantry or refrigerator.

I followed the recipe and had hard time making the balls so I added about 10 more dates, it came out delicious! Definitely will make it again!

Hey, Sasha! Thank you for the feedback. If your dates are dry/hard rather than fresh/soft, you’ll need to add more moisture to the recipe. If you ever encounter this issue again, just add 1-2 tsp melted coconut oil. That will do the trick! Alternatively, you can soak your dates in hot water for 10 minutes, drain the water, and then pat the dates completely dry. That will also work well. Enjoy! xo
