Carrot Oat Energy Bites

Edit

Big hit with the family which is always my criteria. I increased coconut to 1.5C and blended everything in processor. it wasn't quite coming together so I added a teaspoon of coconut flavor skinny syrup.

Ingredients


  • 3 medium carrots
  • 1 Cup oats
  • 1 Cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 Cup dates
  • 1 TBSP coconut oil or other light flavoured oil
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp  ginger dried
  • Desiccated coconut for rolling

Instructions


  1. Watch the quick recipe video before you get started, scroll up a little to find it
  2. Check the notes at the bottom of the recipe for little bits of extra info and help
  3. Place carrots in a sturdy food processor and blitz until very finely chopped
  4. Add remaining ingredients, excluding the desiccated coconut and blitz until the mixture comes together into a large ball. This will take some time, 5 or so minutes of blitzing but be patient it will get there
  5. Using a teaspoon form balls, the mixture will be quite sticky (becuase of the water content of the fresh carrot) , but the texture improves once you roll in coconut. Get the kids involved they will love the mess
  6. Roll the balls in desiccated coconut
  7. Refrigerate
