NOTES : This chocolate peanut butter bar recipe is tender and not too greasy. Makes a delicious treat for the kids.
"I baked about 100 dozen cookies for the holidays and these were everyone's favorite!! These bars can be frozen, just thaw 10 minutes before serving."

Back already!!! DH got my recipe box for me!

Banana Oat Bites: 2 mashed bananas, 2 c. oats, 1/4 c. almond or any nut butter, 1/4 c. maple syrup, 2 T. mini chocolate chips, 1/2 t. cinnamon. Notes: these are VERY moist and best if you coat them in something (I used flaxmeal and crushed graham crackers). Store them in the freezer or fridge. They are best eating straight from fridge and these are one of my favorites. You may need to add more oats if you want them a bit firmer. I did not.

Breakfast Bites: 1/3 c. oat flour, 1 c. almond flour, 1/4-1/3 c. peanut flour, 2 T. flaxmeal, 1/4 c. nut butter, 1 T. cinnamon, 1/4 c. maple syrup, 1/2 t. vanilla, 1 T. molasses, 2 T. finely crushed nuts (opt.), chocolate (opt.) After forming, may roll in more crushed nuts or peanut flour. 

Energy Bites: 1/3 c. peanut butter, 2 T. honey, 1 t. cinnamon, 1/2 c. almonds, 1/4 c. any dried fruit or seeds, 1/2 c. oats or crispy rice cereal, chocolate (opt.), 24 whole hazelnuts (or almonds). Mix everything but whole nuts, then make balls around a whole nut.


www.cookinglight.com/recipes/brownie-energy-bites-I made these with whole almonds and peanut butter so you can see these recipes are quite flexible.

I have a few more if you want them, but these should get you started. 
Enjoy!
