Makes 14 bites
Ingredients:
1 cup quick oats
1 cup Michele's Breakfast Nook Chocolate Chip Granola, gently crushed to eliminate large chunks
½ cup shredded coconut
½ cup sunflower seed butter
¼ cup maple syrup (up to 1-2 tablespoons additional only if needed)
1 tsp vanilla
½ cup chocolate chips
¼ tsp salt
Directions:
- Add oats, granola, coconut, sunflower seed butter, syrup, vanilla, chocolate chips, and salt into a large mixing bowl. Mix with a spatula or large spoon until well combined.
- Portion 2 tablespoons worth of dough for each bite.
- Using the palms of your hand, roll into a round shape. Note: If the dough is too dry and crumbly, add additional maple syrup, one tablespoon at a time until the dough easily forms into a ball.
- Allow them to rest for 10 minutes before consuming.
Storage:
The bites can be stored in an air-tight container at room temp for 3-5 days or refrigerated for one week. If you refrigerate them, allow them to come to room temperature before enjoying.
