Adding a few nutritious ingredients is one of the most important aspects of enjoying a healthy dessert or sweet treat daily, whether you have the munchies or not.

My Well With Cannabis Community loves healthy cannabis recipes, and members always seek ways to incorporate cannabis into their healthy lifestyles.

Luckily, with some experimenting, I have found some pretty tasty ways to make tasty treats using nutrient-dense ingredients that taste good, too.

In this post, you will discover how to make these delicious cannabis bliss balls with step-by-step instructions, helpful tips and tricks, and many alternate infusion options you can try.

What You’ll Need

A white countertop with the ingredients needed to make almond joy cannabis bliss bliss including nut butter, milk, almond extract, chia seeds ,coconut, almonds, syrup, oats, dates and cannabis oil
  • 1 cup quick-cook oats: Use quick-cook oats, not traditional rolled oats
  • 1 cup pitted, chopped dates: Buying pre-chopped dates makes this recipe easy, but if you can’t find them, simply chop up some pitted dates with a large kitchen knife
  • ⅔ cup slivered almonds: Use slivered almonds
  • ¼ cup chia seeds: Chia seeds can easily be found in your local grocery store
  • 6 Tablespoons coconut flakes: Use unsweetened shredded coconut flakes
  • ½ cup milk: Any type of milk that you want, like hemp seed milk or cannabis milk
  • ¼ cup nut butter: Any type. For a nut-free option, try hemp seed butter.
  • ¼ cup maple syrup: You can substitute honey or agave syrup here if desired.
  • 2 Tablespoons cannabis oil: My Bliss Cooking Oil is perfect for this recipe. Find dosing and alternative options listed below.
  • 2 Tablespoons dark chocolate chips: or any chocolate you want to use for garnish.

Note: a complete list of ingredients with amounts and printable instructions is located in the recipe card below.

Perfect Dosing

This recipe calls for two tablespoons of cannabis oil.

Each 1mL dropper of my Bliss Cooking Oil contains 2.5mg of THC and 2.5mg of CBD.

A tablespoon contains 15mL, resulting in 37.5mg of THC per tablespoon.

If you use two tablespoons of Bliss Cooking Oil, your total batch will contain 75mg of THC.

You then divide this number by the total number of bliss balls made, which is 24, or however many you made.

To get the total mg of THC per bliss ball, simply divide 75mg/24 bites = 3.125mg of THC per Bliss Ball.

These tasty treats make the perfect dessert, breakfast, or snack. They are pretty filling, and 2-4 bites make the perfect snack serving size.

Frequently Asked Questions

Cannabliss balls can be brand new to even the most seasoned cannabis consumer, so here are some of the most common FAQs I get asked about this recipe from my Well With Cannabis Community.

Can I add a protein source?

Yes, I recommend unflavored collagen protein powder. You can easily find these at your local health food store or buy them online. Each scoop of collagen provides 20 grams of high-quality protein to help keep you full and satisfied after your morning meal. I prefer collagen peptides because they are a single-ingredient protein source, but if you have a protein powder you already love, feel free to use it!

Are these treats low in sugar?

These balls have only ¼ cup of added sugar from the maple syrup and a little bit from the chocolate drizzle. Otherwise, these tasty treats are naturally sweetened with dates. These tasty protein bites are also nutrient-dense; they provide many important vitamins, minerals, and amino acids from the collagen protein powder. The oatmeal and chia seeds provide complex carbohydrates that help to prevent blood sugar spikes, while the almonds and hemp-seed butter provide heart-healthy fats needed to keep you full and focused during the day. Find more sugar-free edibles here.

Will these treats give me the munchies?

Yes, there is always the possibility that edibles could give you the munchies; thankfully, we have many tips and tricks for managing the munchies here.
