Calories
Author Louisa

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup almond butter
  • 1 Tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 1/2 cups cooked quinoa
  • 2/3 cups old fashioned oats
  • 3 Tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 1/2 cup Blue Diamond Dark Chocolate Almonds , roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Combine almond butter, peanut butter, and honey in a small saucepan. On medium heat, melt the mixture down to a thick liquid-like state, stirring constantly. Once melted down, remove from heat and set aside.
  • Combine cooked quinoa, oats, chia seeds, and chopped dark chocolate almonds in a large bowl. Add the almond butter mixture to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly.
  • Once completely combined, take about 2 Tablespoons of mixture at a time and squeeze tightly in your hands before rolling into round bites. Place on a wax paper-lined baking sheet. When mixture is all rolled out, place in the freezer to set up.
  • About twenty minutes before eating, take out of the freezer to soften slightly.

Notes

Instead of Blue Diamond's Dark Chocolate Almonds, feel free to use chopped almonds and raw cacao nibs.
When rolling the bites in your hands, get your hands wet every couple bites and they won't stick quite as badly.
