RECIPE OF THE MONTH
Pumpkin No Bake Energy
Bites
Delicious and healthy energy
bites celebrating the mighty pumpkin!
Total Time: 10 mins
Ingredients:
- 8 oz. (about 1 packed cup) chopped dates
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 Tbsp. chia seeds or flax seeds
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
- pinch of salt
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats (dry, not cooked)
- 1 cup toasted coconut flakes
- 1 cup toasted pumpkin seeds
Directions:
Combine the dates, honey,
pumpkin puree, chia (or flax) seeds, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt in a
food processor, and pulse until smooth and combined.
Transfer the mixture to a
large bowl, and stir in the oats, coconut flakes and pumpkin seeds until evenly
combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Once the mixture is cool (and
easier to work with), use a spoon or cookie scoop to shape it into your desired
size of energy balls. (About 1-inch in diameter.) Alternately, you can line a
small baking pan with parchment paper, and press the mixture evenly into the
pan, let it cool, and then cut into bars.
Store covered in the refrigerator
for up to 2 weeks. (Storing them in the refrigerator especially helps the
energy bites hold their shape.)
