Ingredients
1 cup quick cooking gluten-free oatsregular oats are okay to use
In the bowl of a food processor, add the oats, peanut butter, dates, flax seeds, vanilla and ground ginger. Pulse a few times to combine ingredients.
To the mixture, Add unsweetened coconut. Combine with a spoon. Place the bowl in the fridge for about 20- 30 minutes. ( This makes it easier to roll the energy bites)
Place the rolled energy bites on a cookie sheet in the freezer for about 30 minutes. The energy bites are ready to eat. Keep them either in the fridge or in a freezer bag in the freezer. My family keeps a few in both fridge and freezer.
Notes
These energy bites can be kept in the freezer for a few weeks.
We eat them right out of the freezer.
If kept in the fridge, they do not last long in my house, but no more than a few days should they be kept in the fridge.
