Whip up a batch of these protein bites, and they’ll be ready and waiting for those stressful, I-just-need-a-snack moments. Powerfully delicious!
Ingredients
1 cup old fashioned oats, divided
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 tsp Himalayan Salt
1 cup sunflower butter
1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate pieces
Cacao Sugar, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, finely chopped almonds, for rolloing
Instructions
- Using a food processor, pulse half of the oats to make a semi-fine powder. Leave the other half of the oats in the original form to add more texture to the power bites.
- Mix well. Form into 16 bite-sized balls. Roll them in Cacao Sugar or alternate between powdered sugar, cocoa powder and finely chopped almonds for interest and texture.
- Refrigerate until firm. If stored in the fridge, consume within 2 weeks. You could also store in the freezer for up to 8 months.
