Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Almond butter
- 8 Medjool dates, pitted
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 3 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Place the rolled oats into a high-speed blender or food processor and pulse until they are finely ground but not powdery.
Add almond butter, pitted Medjool dates, chia seeds, your choice of honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Blend all the ingredients on a high setting until the mixture becomes quite smooth and clumps together. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender a few times to ensure everything is well mixed.
If you are adding mini chocolate chips, mix them into the dough by hand after the main mixture is blended to avoid them getting completely blended.
Use a small scoop or your hands to form the mixture into balls of about 1 inch in diameter. Ensure they are packed tightly so they hold together well.
Place the bites onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or container that will fit in your refrigerator.
Refrigerate the bites for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
