Cranberry Pistachio Energy Bites


  • Author: Julia
  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 24 servings 1x

Description

Twenty-four small no-bake oat, cranberry and pistachio bites.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup Shelled pistachios, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Dried cranberries, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Smooth almond butter
  • 1/4 cup Pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Stir 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, 3/4 cup chopped shelled pistachios, 1/2 cup chopped dried cranberries and 2 tbsp chia seeds in a mixing bowl.
  2. Stir 1/2 cup smooth almond butter until no oil layer remains, then mix with 1/4 cup pure maple syrup. Fold into the oat mixture until evenly moistened. If too dry to form a ball, record the ingredient brand and amount rather than adding unmeasured liquid.
  3. Scoop and roll into approximately twenty-four small, similar one-inch bites. Place on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate about thirty minutes until they hold shape.
  4. Serve one chilled bite as a working portion. Record actual mass and number of bites, binding after a day and labels before any nutrition or make-ahead claim.
