January 05th - Raw Oatmeal Bites

Raw Oatmeal Bliss Balls I had to teach a 'Heathy Eating' class to around 70 students from a local college - Made this quick and tasty snack up, using budget cost ingredients. Mama's Oatmeal Bites :- 1C pitted dates 1C gluten-free oats (or quick cooking for a cheaper option) 1C dedicated coconut 1/2C creamy type nut (macadamia, cashew, hemp seeds, brazil) 1/4C pumpkin/sunflower/sesame seeds 1Tbs un-sulphured black strap molasses (added only for mineral nutrition: iron, copper, calcium, manganese) Pinch mineral salt Blitz nuts and seeds together to make a corse flour. Add gluten-free oats (if using) and blitz to break down a little. If using quick cooking oats, no need for this step. Add all other ingredients and mix together. Roll into balls. Should make at least 25. As one/two balls are really filling, your sugar-load is relatively low & the good fats (nuts/coconut) & slow releasing carbs will keep your energy levels constant.
