Makes 16 bites · 197 kcal per serving

Ingredients

• 100 g rolled oats
• 120 g medjool date
• 100 g peanut butter
• 30 g honey
• 15 g flaxseed, ground
• 15 g chia seeds
• 5 g vanilla extract
• 2 g ground cinnamon
• 1 g salt

Method

1. 1. Blitz the dates in a food processor to a paste.
2. 2. Add the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla, and pulse to combine.
3. 3. Add the oats, flaxseed, chia, cinnamon, and salt, and pulse until it clumps into a sticky, rollable dough.
4. 4. If it's too sticky to roll, pulse in more oats; if too dry, add a splash of milk or water.
5. 5. Roll into bites and chill 30 min to firm up, then keep refrigerated.

Notes

If you don’t have a food processor, chop the dates, add a tiny bit of water, then microwave until warm, and mix into a paste. The “dough” can be hand mixed as well; if you have trouble mixing, warm it in the microwave to loosen.
