Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.25 cup honey
- 0.25 cup almond butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips
- 15 sticks pretzel sticks
Instructions
In a food processor, blend the raw almonds until they form a coarse flour-like texture. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
Add the rolled oats to the food processor and pulse a few more times until the mixture is evenly combined.
Transfer the almond-oat mixture to a mixing bowl. Add the honey, almond butter, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Stir everything together until a sticky dough forms.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips into the mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the dough and roll it into a small oblong shape, slightly narrowing one end to mimic the shape of an acorn. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Break the pretzel sticks into smaller pieces (about 1 inch each) to represent acorn stems. Insert one piece into the wider end of each acorn-shaped ball.
Arrange the completed Acorn Magic Delights on a serving plate or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Enjoy these magical bites as a snack or dessert!
