Immune-Boosting Turmeric Ginger Energy Bites for a Healthy Snack 🟠✨
Ingredients:
1 cup / 90g rolled oats (use certified gluten-free if needed)
1/2 cup / 75g cashew butter or almond butter
1/4 cup / 85g honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup / 25g shredded unsweetened coconut
2 tbsp / 15g chia seeds or flax seeds
1 tbsp / 6g ground turmeric
1 tsp / 3g ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Pinch of black pepper (helps turmeric absorption)
Pinch of salt
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine rolled oats, cashew butter (or almond butter), honey (or maple syrup), shredded coconut, chia seeds (or flax seeds), ground turmeric, ground ginger, cinnamon, black pepper, and salt.
2. Stir the mixture thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and form a sticky dough. If the mixture seems too dry, add a tiny bit more nut butter or sweetener; if too wet, add a bit more oats.
3. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes. This makes it easier to roll.
4. Once chilled, roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter.
5. If desired, you can roll the finished balls in extra shredded coconut or sesame seeds for coating.
6. Place the energy balls in an airtight container.
7. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
