Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup Manitoba Harvest Hemp hearts
- 6 dates pitted and chopped
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to your food procesor and pulse until it comes together. If it seems too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time. If it seems too wet, add a pinch or two of oats.
- Roll between your hands into bite-sized balls (around 1-inch diameter). If the dough is too sticky to work with, pop it into the fridge for 10 minutes.
- Optional: roll each power bite in a little somethin'-somethin' to really elevate them. Think hemp seeds, coconut, cocoa, cinnamon and sugar. If using a fine powder like cinnamon or cocoa, be sure to gently drop the balls on a hard surface a couple of times after a dip to shake off excess powder.
- These will keep for a week in the fridge. Or make big batches and freeze them for up to a couple of months! Yum!
