Making balls in a blender can mean a variety of things depending on what type of balls you’re referring to. If you’re talking about energy balls, bliss balls, or protein balls, here’s a simple recipe you can try:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup nut butter (such as almond, peanut, or cashew)
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1/4 cup mix-ins (such as chocolate chips, dried fruit, nuts, seeds, etc.)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions:
- Blend Ingredients: Place all the ingredients in a blender or food processor.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend until everything is well combined and forms a sticky dough-like consistency. If the mixture seems too dry, you can add a little more nut butter or honey/maple syrup. If it’s too wet, add more oats.
- Form Balls: Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls using your hands. If the mixture is too sticky, you can wet your hands slightly.
- Chill: Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Store: Once chilled, you can transfer the balls to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Feel free to customize the recipe by adding different mix-ins like shredded coconut, cocoa powder, or spices like cinnamon. Enjoy your homemade blender balls as a nutritious snack!
