Ingredients

• 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
• 0.5 cup almond butter
• 8 pieces medjool dates, pitted
• 0.5 cup chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or cashews)
• 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
• 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Place the gluten-free rolled oats, pitted medjool dates, almond butter, chopped nuts, and ground flaxseed into a powerful blender or food processor.

Step 2

Blend on high until the mixture starts to come together and the dates are finely chopped. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed to ensure all ingredients are combined.

Step 3

Add the pure maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt to the mixture. Blend again until everything forms a sticky dough-like consistency.

Step 4

If using, add the mini chocolate chips and pulse a few times to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture.

Step 5

Carefully scoop out tablespoons of the mixture and roll them into small balls using your hands. You should get about 12 bites, depending on the size.

Step 6

Refrigerate the bites for at least 30 minutes to let them firm up a bit before serving.

Step 7

Store the bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week for best freshness.
