Description

Ingredients

• ½ cup natural, unsalted peanut butter or almond butter
• ½ cup pure maple syrup
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• ¼ cup warm water
• 1 ½ cups unsweetened coconut shreds or flakes
• 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
• ½ cup almond meal
• ¼ cup ground flaxseed
• OPTIONAL
• ¼ cup unsweetened coconut flakes for rolling

Directions

• In a large bowl, whisk together the nut butter, maple syrup, cocoa powder and water. Whisk until smooth.
• Add in coconut, oats, almond meal and flax. Stir until you get a cohesive, dough-like mixture. Towards the end, I use a rubber spatula to fold the dough.
• Scoop mixture into your hands and roll into bites. Optionally, roll in coconut flakes.
• Enjoy!
