Attune Foods Author: Melanie F. | Nutritious Eats Serves: 6
Ingredients
2¼ cup cereal (such as Peace Cereal Purple CornFlakes (crushed), Erewhon Crispy Rice, Sweet Home Granola)
¾ cup natural peanut butter
3 teaspoon honey
3 teaspoon chia seeds
3 tablespoons slivered almonds
½ cup bittersweet chocolate
Instructions
Line a cookie sheet with wax or parchment paper. In bowl, combine cereal (if using the purple corn flakes, make sure to crush them lightly first), peanut butter, honey, chia seeds and almonds. Stir until combined.
Use cooking spray or a little cooking oil to coat your hands (mixture will be sticky). Using a spoon scoop up 1 heaping spoonful and gently roll into a ball. Some cereals hold together better than others. If needed, use two spoons to form your ball and place on prepared cookie sheet. Once cereal bites are formed, place cookie sheet in the refrigerator to let balls harden, about 1 hour.
Melt chocolate in a small saucepan. Drizzle a little over each ball. Place cookie sheet back in the refrigerator until chocolate is set, then transfer to a container with lid. Store cereal bites in the refrigerator.
Notes
