Servings: 22 bites
Ingredients
- 1½ cups quick oats or rolled oats
- 1 cup cashew butter
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp almond extract
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- ½ cup sprinkles
Instructions
- First things first, if you don't want to use a food processor or blender, you can skip that step. Just pour everything into a bowl, mix, roll into balls, and enjoy!
- However, if you want to give the bites that really doughy consistency, I highly suggest either blending everything in the food processor. OR blending your oats into a flour in the blender and then just pour those into the bowl with everything else.
- To start, pour your oats into a food processor and blend until a flour-like consistency.
- Add in the cashew butter, maple syrup, almond extract, and sea salt. Blend until incorporated.
- Pour the dough into a bowl and mix in the sprinkles. Roll into balls. Mine made about 20-22 balls. Enjoy!
