MUESLI BITES


This is a quick recipe for muesli bites; a protein rich, nut-loaded and maca-infused snack that is just perfect for when you need some extra energy. I make a batch of these every Sunday to bring me through the week. This is my basic recipe for muesli bites made of almonds, sunflower seeds and sesame seeds and for my favorite version I add shredded coocnut, peanut butter and maca powder too. You can easily vary this recipe by adding a different kind of nut butter (macademia butter is so good too) or by using different extras than coconut and maca. Goji berries, whole hazelnuts, wheatgrass and spirulina powder are amazing in this recipe too.



This is what I make nearly every Sunday and it's a healthy, hearty and pure alternative to store-bought muesli bars or snacks. If you prefer, you can also shape these bites into bars (or try this recipe for my superfood muesli bars) or coat them in some raw chocolate. I tested it, it's soo good. 


MUESLI BITES
Makes 12-15

1/4 cup almonds + 1T
1/4 cup raw dried shredded coconut + 1T
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
2 T sesame seeds +1 T
1 T raw peanut butter
1 T organic maca powder

For the base, pulse almonds, sunflower seeds and sesame seeds. Add shredded coconut and peanut butter and pulse into dough. Add in remaining 1 T of whole almonds.
Roll dough into muesli bites and coat in remaining 1 T sesame seeds and 1 T shredded coconut.

Enjoy!

PS: One of the next recipes includes one for a raw chocolate mylkshake that is out of this world and better than every non-raw version you've ever had - stay tuned.
