I just prepared these as a post partum snack with orange and lemon instead of lime. Super yummy😍
I went as fast as I could and it still took me 40 minutes to make these 😅. But, they are absolutely phenomenal! Tastes like key lime pie! ☺️
Yummy 😋
Absolutely love these , I actually made the lemon version instead of lime. All my boys love it including hubby . I wish I can share some pictures
Dear Sadia,
I love those bliss balls and I just want to tell you that I'm so thankful for this recipe. I enjoy them also without Cranberries. Its funny that your first published recipe is with limes.
Have a nice fresh day, Lisa
I really enjoy the sour and fresh taste of lime with the sweetness of the dates. I also made this recipe with lemons, which is also a good combination.
My second energy ball recipe. Easy to prepare and really tasty. A treat but healthy too. Better than a biscuit or sweet snack and still providing that sweet kick. Fab.
Thank you for this recipe!
Wonderful and intense lime taste - my favourite energy bites 😍
Quick, easy and delicious!! These are perfect when you need a little boost of energy in the afternoon.
It has a great unusual taste and only sugar from fruits.
Dear PUL team and community,
I positively dislike the taste and texture of coconut. Any swap suggestions that would yield similar results in terms of nutrients/consistency?
Thanking you in advance,
Karmen 😉😘
Really zesty and tasty! I struggled a little with getting the mixture to form into balls- - could have been because the cranberries I used were AJ-sweetened, so plumper and more difficult to work with. Even though I don’t have the greatest food processor, the nut mixture blended well and the dates and lime juice also incorporated nicely, but when I combined the wet and dry mixtures, it didn’t seem to bind well. A few dashes of maple syrup helped (though almond butter may have also helped?). But , anyway, the taste is still super refreshing and delicious!
Very delicious!
I finally found the origin of Pick Up 'Limes' after 4 years :)
Love it, thanks for making my college life plant based and tasty.
So delicious!! This is the first recipe I’ve tried from you and it is an absolute hit (with myself at least lol. My toddler is cautious of new things 😂) I’ll definitely be making more of these :)
Taste amazing!! Loved how lime balanced the sweetness of dates, and they are nourishing too:) Thank you for such an amazing recipe
These are tangy, wonderful treats!
Wonderful!! Juste made it, easy to make and delicious.
The grocery list in this app is great, so motivating to make things :)
So good! Perfect snack for the warmer seasons :)
I just made these balls and they are incredibly tasty ! The tanginess from the lime is absolutely delicious and pairs beautifully with the coconut. They even convinced my husband who is a fan of chocolate and usually does not enjoy fruity treats. Will be making them again very soon.
Hit with the family. Great snack to bring on canoeing/camping trips!
Loved the flavour profile of these healthy treats!
Simply yummy
Forgott the rate
Wow! I looove this balls😍
I have pre blended almonds and normal (Lidl) dates. Works well.
Can you please make more ball recipes with different tastes? With some other dried fruits, nuts, spices?
Best energy balls I have ever tried! Also first recepy I tried from you. Will work my way through them all if they are all so good =) Thank you!
So easy, quick & good. I like the littlesour taste. My 5 year old nephew like it too. He has eaten a vegan cake, it was not good. Now he think with everything, "it taste not good, I think it's vegan". 🙄 My mission, all good sweet recipes from PUL for him. I know,
all recipes are so good! Thanks. Next time cowboy cookies.
Is there a good substitude for the dates? I am unfortunatelly not a fan of the taste, but the combination of cranberries and limes sounds very goods, so would like to make it somehow.
These bliss balls taste so blissful! I'm so encouraged now to try more bliss ball receipes from you now that I know I love them! Thank you team Sadia <3 you guys are so awesome!
Finally tried this, as we got gifted a few limes. Worked out perfectly, even without a food processer (my 2 year old is horrible afraid of the noise).
I just used ground almonds instead of raw and used a sharp knife to chop up the cashews quite small.
The important thing is to soak the dates in hot water before mashing/cutting them. This helps a lot to hold the dough together. Works for all the recepies I've tried so far.
Obviously the bliss ball taste great, but that is almost a given following PUL recepies
Unbelievably delicious! I made mine with lemon zest and lemon and lime juice (it's what I had). So good!
These energy balls are yummy and are good complements to fruits for fika👌🏻😋. I just put everything, except raisins/cranberries, in my food processor to speed up the process. It worked very well and I had my fika faster🤣. Lime and coconut are a wonderful combination, as it tastes fresh and deliciously keen in parallel. The sole reason for not giving it a 5/5 is that I’m a chocolate fan. A matter of preference😅
Well called bliss balls for they are truly bliss! So pungent and satisfying! 😁
I have just scrolled through everything to the end of all the recipes! This website is amazing!! I can't want to try out everything :p. Thank you so much for such a beautiful site!!
