I have been keeping the fridge stocked with these little blueberry crumble bites lately, and I am in snack heaven! If you have been hanging around the blog for any amount of time you are sure to know that I am a snacker. My kids are snackers….and my husband is a snacker. We go through a lot of snacks. Keeping up with the snacking habits can become a little time consuming, especially when you are avoiding processed foods.

Enter blueberry crumble bites. These little balls contain only 4 ingredients, take only 10 minutes to put together and are absolutely delicious! They really do taste like blueberry crumble (I promise), and they are the perfect little afternoon pick-me-up when you need a little burst of energy.

If you are snackers too, be sure to check out these other quick treats – Peanut Butter Choc Chip Bars and Chocolate Coconut Roughs.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw cashews
  • 7 mejdool dates pitted
  • 1/2 cup freeze dried blueberries
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Pop the cashews in the blender and pulse until crumbly
  • Add the dates and vanilla and pulse until the mixture comes together, and forms a ball
  • Add the freeze dried blueberries, and give a quick pulse to incorporate
  • Take 1 tsp of the mixture and roll into a ball. Place on a tray lined with plastic wrap. Repeat with the rest of the mixture until it is all done (you should get about 20 balls). Pop the balls on the tray into the freezer
  • Once frozen, remove from the tray and store in a ziplock back, or an airtight container (see notes for more storage tips)

Notes

These can be stored in the fridge for about a week. If you are like me, and make big batches - they store really well in the freezer for a couple of months

    Omgsh my son would LOVE these! We’ve been eating “That’s It” bars a ton and I love feeding him stuff that includes only (or mostly) fruit!

      Ooh I haven’t heard of ‘thats it’ bars, we are big fans of lara bars (and I am guessing they are similar?) – I will have to check them out! Always good to have some healthy alternatives on hand at the bottom of the diaper bag 🙂

      Thanks Bonnie! I am a total blueberry addict too 🙂 Although I have a feeling I am going to be a bit over them by the time this blueberry season ends (we may have gone a bit overboard!)

    These look and sound so delicious!! I need to get better at making healthy snacks to have on hand for when I’m “Starving”… I think I’ll whip some of these up this weekend!

      Oh enjoy blueberry picking, so much fun! We haven’t gone fruit picking yet this summer (except in the backyard), definitely have to rectify that before all the yummy fruit disappears 🙂

      Thanks Alessandra 🙂 That would be so annoying being allergic to almonds – they tend to be in everything these days as an alternative to peanuts! I am a huge fan of 3-4 ingredient snacks – they have to be quick and easy for me to have the motivation to make them! Hope you enjoy

      Definitely good for some energy post workout Annie!! Freeze dried blueberries are so delicious (but messy if your kids get hold of the whole bag – mine had stained hands and faces for the rest of the day)

      I hope you enjoy! I am a total fan of quick and easy, minimum ingredient recipes – I am way more likely to make them if it only takes 5 minutes while the kids are napping 🙂 Thanks for popping by!

      Thanks Shauna!! Yeah I tried with fresh blueberries but it was just too moist and messy – the freeze dried are perfect, as they have a more intense flavour burst with less blueberries, and they hold together well with the dates 🙂
