Recipe of the Quarter: Banana Chocolate Chip Energy Bites

Serves: 20

Ingredients

- 1¼ cup rolled oats

- ¼ cup ground flaxseed

- 1 tablespoon chia seeds

- 1/3 cup maple syrup

- 1/4 cup almond butter

- 1 ripe banana, mashed

- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

 

Instructions

  • In a medium to large bowl mix together all of the ingredients. Cover the bowl and let the batter sit in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours or overnight. The batter will be wet but will firm as it sits.
  • Form into 20 balls. It will be helpful to have your hands wet as you roll the balls. Also, you press the oats into a ball more than actually rolling it.
  • Let the balls sit in the refrigerator for a couple hours or overnight. The balls will firm as they sit. Enjoy for breakfast or snacks.
