Blueberry Mixture
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

- ¼ cup shredded coconut (optional)
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Additional Flavorings and Decorations
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- White chocolate or yogurt coating (optional, for decoration)

Instructions
- Cook the Blueberries: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, and honey. Simmer for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries burst and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and gently mash with a fork. Let cool for a few minutes.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the quick oats, almond flour, shredded coconut (if using), cinnamon, and salt.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the cooled blueberry mixture into the dry ingredients and add the vanilla extract. Stir everything together until well combined.
- Chill the Mixture: Refrigerate the mixture for 20–30 minutes to allow it to firm up and become easier to handle.
- Form Bites: Once chilled, roll the mixture into 1-inch bite-sized balls.
- Decorate (Optional): If desired, dip or drizzle the bites with melted white chocolate or a yogurt coating. Decorate with mini candy eyes or sprinkles to resemble bunny faces.
- Set and Serve: Place the decorated bites on a parchment-lined tray and chill until the coating sets. Serve chilled and enjoy!
