Bliss Balls are a great guilt-free treat, but most of the recipes I’ve come across aren’t suitable for the kids’ lunchboxes because they have nuts in them. So, I decided to make my own Raw Apricot and Date Bliss Ball recipe. Super easy to make in 10 minutes flat and nut-free, they’re the perfect addition to school lunches.
