Method Here you will need a blender with a high velocity to blend everything well, or you can blend the wet separately from the dry for a smoother consistency. Add the walnuts, buckwheat, and oats to a blender and blend until crumb-like texture, I like the buckwheat slightly whole. Then drain the dates, add to a blender along with the raisins and nut butter, and blend again, add a bit of water if necessary to create a soft caramel-like texture. Then in a large bowl, fold the caramel into the dry mixture and then fold in the spices, here you can add some more chopped walnuts if you like. Add 1-2 tbsp of the batter to the palm of your hands and roll into balls, press slightly flat, and then freeze. Mix the topping for the hot cross buns, scoop into a ziplock bag, and snip off the tip. make a cross on to each bliss ball and keep it in the fridge to enjoy as you like!
