Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup almonds
- 10 pieces pitted dates
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Begin by placing the rolled oats in a high-speed blender. Blend on high until the oats are a fine flour-like consistency. Transfer the oat flour to a large bowl.
Next, add the almonds to the blender. Pulse until they are finely ground, similar to the consistency of almond flour, but don't over-process into almond butter.
Return the processed almonds to the bowl with the oat flour.
Add the pitted dates to the blender. Pulse until the dates are broken down and start to clump together.
Add the ground oats, almonds, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the blender with the dates.
Blend all ingredients until they form a sticky dough. If the mixture remains too dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water. Stir and blend again as needed, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
Using a spoon or your hands, take about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture. You should be able to form approximately 12 bites.
Place the rolled bites onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Once firm, store the Vegan Nut and Oat Blender Bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze for up to three months for longer storage.
