Servings: 22-24 energy bites 1x
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free rolled oats or muesli (we love Seven Sunday’s Muesli)
- 1 cup no sugar-added nut or seed butter of choice (such as almond butter, cashew butter, peanut butter or sunflower seed butter)
- 3 Tbsp. honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup dried fruit + chopped nuts/seeds (pumpkin or sunflower) of choice (or 1/3 cup Made In Nature Super Berry Fruit Fusion)
- 1 Tbsp. chia seeds or ground flaxseed
- ¼ cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a food processor or blender, combine the rolled oats, nut or seed butter, honey or maple syrups and vanilla extract. If using quick oats, you can just mix in a bowl.
- Pulse until ingredients start coming together. You will have to scrape the sides of your food processor or blender several times throughout this step.
- Transfer mixture to a bowl and add in the remaining ingredients. Mix to combine.
- Form dough into small round bites. Really press the dough firmly when forming into bites so they hold together well. If not sticking together, simply add additional nut butter. Optional – drizzle with melted chocolate.
- Store energy bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to eat.
