Ingredients

No Bake Bites

  • 1/2 cup all natural creamy almond butter, can sub any other nut or seed butter
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup, can sub honey, agave or date syrup
  • 1 1/4 cup oat flour 
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots, I prefer to use a cheese grater or microplane
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted with 1 tbsp coconut oil 


Other Additions

  • walnuts
  • raisins
  • cinnamon
  • ground ginger

SCALE:

1X

YIELDS:

12 BITES 

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine maple syrup, almond butter, cinnamon, ground ginger and nutmeg. Use a spatula to mix until fully combined.
  2. Next, add in oat flour and carrots and mix until well incorporated.
  3. Then, use a cooke scoop or a tablespoon and roll dough into balls. Place them on a lined baking sheet and into the freezer while you melt the white chocolate.
  4. Melt white chocolate in a bowl with coconut oil in the microwave in 30 second increments, stirring well in between each session.
  5. When ready, dip and coat the balls in white chocolate before placing them back on the lined baking sheet. Freeze for 1-3 minutes and then drizzle with more white chocolate before adding on walnuts and cinnamon for toppings.
  6. Place back in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up completely and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use an all natural almond butter that is smooth and creamy for best results. Avoid ones that have palm oil.
  • Freshly grated carrots will be much softer and have a better flavor. I prefer to use a cheese grater or microplane.
  • Keep these stored in the fridge for the perfect grab and go snack or dessert. Carrot cake bites can also be frozen, just thaw on counter for 10 minutes before enjoying.

Don’t...

Don’t be held captive by your thoughts... #motivationalmonday This hit me like a brick.  For so long I let myself be a prisoner by my thoughts, how I felt when I looked in the mirror, insecurities, lack of self confidence and now I feel like a whole new person!  I’m thankful that Jesus helped me through some of my darkest storms. Even when I feel alone, I know He is right beside me. Not to mention the amazing family I’ve been gifted.  I’m truly blessed.   Life is important. 👉 YOU 👈 are important.   Hope you have an awesome day and Happy New Year!

The number of these benefits also increase if that early morning meal is higher in protein, particularly in the form of a protein-dense shake.

Improved Concentration and Memory From large observational trials, mainly targeted toward children, breakfast is shown to be strongly associated with improved concentration and memory (1) Scientists suggest that this is due to breakfast’s immediate impact on blood sugar to fuel young brains (2,3).
