Chocolate Cinnamon Energy Bites

Kanchan KoyaBy Spice Spice Baby  , , , , , , , ,

June 14, 2016

Magnesium is an incredibly important mineral and most adults and kids today don’t get enough. To help your family get their magnesium in the most delicious way, I created these Energy Bites. One nom and you'll wonder how something that tastes so good can be so good for you! Each ball contains 33 mg of magnesium or 41% of the recommended daily intake for 1-3 year olds! My 4 year old and the rest of the family, for that matter, are absolutely addicted.

  • Yields: 12-14 balls

Ingredients

1/2 cup almond butter

3/4 cup oats

1 tablespoon raw cacao powder

1/4 cup honey

1 tablespoon ground flax seeds

1 teaspoon cinnamon (preferably Ceylon)

Directions

Place all ingredients in a food processor. Blend well until the oats are broken down into granules and the ingredients are well combined into a crumbly dough. Shape the mixture into 3/4 inch diameter balls between the palms of your hands. Chill in the fridge for 1 hour to set. These will keep in the fridge for 2 weeks in an airtight container but they will most definitely not last that long, if my tot's obsession with them is any indication. You can also freeze them for longer enjoyment.
