Description
Healthy nut free and allergy friendly energy bites.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup ground flax*
- 4 large Medjool dates, pitted
- 2 Tbsp collagen peptides
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1-2 tsp water
- 1 Tbsp cocoa powder
for rolling (optional)
Instructions
- In your food processor
, combine all ingredients except the water and cocoa powder. Blend to a course mixture.
- Add 1 teaspoon of water to the mixture and blend. The dough should be sticky and start to clump together. You'll know it's ready if you can easily roll the mixture into balls. If needed, add another teaspoon of water.
- Roll the mixture into balls, each about 1 tablespoon in size. You should get about 12 balls.
- Optional: Place the cocoa powder in small bowl. Roll each ball in the cocoa powder until fully coated.
- These energy bites are best stored in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
*You can either buy pre-ground flax or grind your own flax seeds. I grind my own flax seeds using a coffee grinder.
