Raw-Vegan Peanut Butter and Chocolate Energy Bites
(all measurements are approximate; experiment to your own tastes)
Ingredients
  • 2 cups ground rolled oats3 tbsp ground flax seeds
  • 2-4 tablespoon raw cacao powder
  • 2-3 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 4-5 tablespoon peanut butter or other nut butter
  • 1-2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
1. Grind flax seeds then rolled oats and pour into a mixing bowl. I like to include some unground rolled oats in this recipe as well. Add cacao powder and salt. Mix in wet ingredients (raw honey, peanut butter, olive oil, and water) gradually, until you are able to roll the dough until balls.
2. Experiment with the quantity of each ingredient to your own tastes-feel free to taste the dough as you add ingredients. The olive oil is to add extra fat so it slows the absorption of the sugar in the honey into your bloodstream (so you don't get a sugar high and then crash).
3. The water is added if needed to give the dough more wetness, and the sea salt is not added as a flavoring in itself, but to enhance all the other flavors going on. Store finished balls in the fridge.
