Ingredients

150ggluten-free rolled oats
2 tbspcoconut oil
2 tbspsmooth peanut butter, almond butter, or sunflower seed butter
60mlpure maple syrup or other liquid sweetener
1 tsppure vanilla extract
60galmond flour or almond meal
¼ tspfine-grain sea salt
2 tbspmini dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate

Instructions

In a high-speed blender, blend the oats until a fine flour forms. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine the oil, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla and beat with a hand mixer until smooth. Add the almond flour, oat flour, and salt and beat again until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 tablespoon of dough each). If chocolate chips fall to the bottom of the bowl, press them back into the dough when rolling. Place the finished bites on a plate lined with parchment paper.

Freeze the bites for 5 to 10 minutes, or until firm. Store the bites in the freezer in a freezer bag for quick and easy snacks.

Prep time: 15 minutes. Chill time: 10 minutes.

Tips:

For a nut-free version, simply swap sunflower seed butter for the peanut butter and more oat flour for the almond flour (add a splash of nondairy milk if the dough is a bit dry). Both versions work just fine.
