**CERTAIN OAT PRODUCTS MAY CONTAIN TRACES OF GLUTEN BECAUSE THE WAY THEY ARE GROWN AN/OR PROCESSED**.
(Although I’m sure anyone with severe gluten related problems, already knows this).
These have lots of protein too!
I found all the ingredients I needed at the Bulk Barn. If the seeds are not available at your local grocery store, try a health food store..
1 cup chopped pitted dates (this can’t be left out because it acts like a binder to hold everything together, if you can think of something that would do the same job, try that)..
1/2 cup water.
1 cup rolled oats.
1 cup hulled, roasted, unsalted sunflower seeds.
1 cup hulled, roasted, unsalted pumpkin seeds.
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots.
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds.
1/4 cup medium unsweetened coconut.
3/4 cup brown sugar.
1/4 cup oat flour.
1/4 cup canola oil.
3/4 tsp salt.
Combine the dates and water in a medium saucepan and cook over medium low heat until simmering. Cook and stir for about 4 minutes until the dates are soft, mushy and most of the water is gone..
Combine all the ingredients (except for dates) in a large bowl. Once combined, add the dates and stir until thoroughly mixed..
Prepare a small 8×8″ baking dish by lining it with parchment or aluminium foil, grease the foil or parchment. Pour the mixture in the pan and press mixture evenly in the bottom of the pan..
Bake at 350F for about 35 minutes or until top is evenly golden..
Let cool completely..
Remove from pan by holding the paper/foil and lifting out..
Cut into bars..
Store in a sealed container at room temperature..
Makes about 15 bars, depending on how small you cut them.

There’s loads of good stuff in these protein balls. Natural nut butters, the natural sweetener agave, dried fruit, oats and to make it funcoconut, vegan chocolate and sprinkles! If you want to go to town on the protein you can even add in your favourite protein powder for epic power balls!
The key to great energy bites, energy balls or protein balls is the combination of ingredients. You will needs sticky ingredients to get them to stick together, I like to use nut butters, dried fruit and agave as the base and then mix and match fun ingredients for various flavour combinations. The addition of oats and flours like coconut or almond give these balls some substance, protein and mouthfeel. The oats will also keep you fuller longer and really turn these into a substantial snack that will keep you satiated until your next meal. All you have to do is pick your ingredients and blend them in a food processor until you have a thick but workable dough or batter. Then put them in the fridge to soften the oats and roll them into balls! These energy-boosting protein balls will keep in the fridge for a week and in the freezer for up to 1 month!
The chocolate chip power balls taste just like a chocolate chip and walnut cookie! The ingredients include: Old fashioned oats for chewiness, quick oats to help as a binder, almond butter, dates, agave, vanilla extract, walnuts and vegan chocolate chips..
The Chocolate Blueberry Energy bites are my personal favourite. The dried blueberries are insanely yummy. The ingredients include: cashews, quick cooking oats, dried blueberries, dates, cacao powder, vanilla and salt..
The third energy ball recipe is birthday cake or birthday batter flavour! This is a really fun after school snack for your kids! The ingredients include: old fashioned rolled oats, coconut flour, Macadamia nut butter, agave, almond extract, vanilla Extract, Salt, unsweetened shredded coconut, and sprinkles..
