These Matcha Walnut Date Bliss Balls are exactly what we needed to add some bite-sized energy to our day. A healthy, nutrient-dense snack that tastes so decadent! We started with walnuts for their high omega-3 fatty acid content, phytonutrients and healthy fats that support your brain health. We chose dates for their fibre and matcha for its energy and antioxidants. We joined forces with Vive Wellness and Health Coach Kelly to create these indulgent snack bites. Try them out with the super simple recipes below.
1 cup walnuts
1 cup medjool dates
2 tbsp Matcha Bliss* (or other matcha powder)
4 tbsp raw cacao powder
2 tbsp shredded coconut
Pinch of cayenne powder
Pinch of sea salt
Additional coconut shreds for rolling
*Matcha Bliss is a blend of cacao, maca, reishi, matcha, cinnamon, sea salt. You could substitute pure matcha or a mixture of similar plant powders.
You can eat these direct from the freezer for a chewier consistency or move to the fridge.
1 cup walnuts
1 cup medjool dates
2 tbsp Activate Matcha* (or other matcha powder)
4 tbsp raw cacao powder
2 tbsp shredded coconut
Pinch of sea salt
Additional Activate Matcha for rolling
*Activate Matcha is a blend of matcha, maca, siberian ginseng, green tea pollen, spirulina, vanilla. You could substitute pure matcha or a similar mix of plant powders.
This version of the bliss balls doesn't have the heat of the cayenne and has the lighter flavours of the Activate Matcha. Activate Matcha also has more matcha in it than Matcha Bliss. For either recipe you can add more pure matcha if you want a greater energy boost!
Enjoy these straight from the freezer for a chewier consistency or move to the fridge.
