Servings: 24 muffin bites
Ingredients
- 2 cups nuts I used 1 cup of pecans and 1 cup of almonds
- 1 cup dates pitted
- 1 cup dried blueberries
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to the bowl of your food processor and blend until the nuts are well chopped and a thick “dough” starts to form, about 3-5 minutes of processing.
- When the ingredients are well incorporated, remove the blade from the food processor. Take 1 large tablespoon of the “dough” and roll it into a ball in between your hands. Repeat with remaining dough. Keep the balls in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer much longer.
Notes
- Process the nuts first until coarsely chopped, then add the remaining ingredients. This creates the perfect texture with small bits of nuts for a satisfying crunch rather than a paste-like consistency.
- Add a tiny pinch of cinnamon or a drop of almond extract to elevate the blueberry flavor. These subtle additions bring out the natural sweetness without overpowering the delicate blueberry taste.
- When stored in an airtight container, they'll keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months. I actually prefer them straight from the freezer – they get a delightful chewy texture!
- The basic recipe is foolproof, but you can easily switch up the nuts or add extras like chia seeds, flaxseed, or a touch of lemon zest to make them truly your own.
