I don’t know about your kids, but mine are constantly looking for something to snack on. I love to try different protein bite combinations as it gives us all variety, along with being so packed full of nutrients. Another reason I really enjoy making them is that it gives my little one an opportunity to get in the kitchen with me. She can pour in the ingredients and get her hands messy while rolling them into balls. *Super fun for an 8 year old!
I stumbled upon this one recently and made some adjustments! They turned out fantastic. Next time I will add some crushed almonds (didn’t have any on hand).
Apple Pie Energy Bites
~2 1/4 cups of organic rolled oats
~1 large apple, grated or finely chopped
~1/2 tsp each of Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Ground Ginger
~4 Tbsp Flax seed (I used a combo that has flax and chia seeds)
~4 Tbsp Honey
~8 Tbsp of Cashew butter or any nut butter of choice
Add all the ingredients to a bowl and mix well. Form into balls and chill for an hour before
eating.
Makes about 18-24 bites
*A tip I like to use for getting all the honey off measuring spoon is to first
spray the spoon with nonstick spray. It'll all slide right off!
