Healthy Snack

Here is a healthy, easy to make granola snack to stash in your fridge for summer days. An added bonus is that they are gluten free and peanut-free if you use almond butter. Kids and adults love them!
 
Granola Bites
  • 1-½ cup Quick Oats
  • ½ cups Crisp Rice Cereal
  • ¼ cups Ground Flaxseed
  • ¼ cups Oat Bran
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 2/3 cups Dark Chocolate Chips
  • ½ cups No-stir Natural Peanut Butter (or any natural nut butter)
  • ½ cups Honey
1. In a large bowl, stir together oats, cereal, flaxseed, oat bran, salt, chocolate chips. Add in peanut butter and honey. Stir in until well-combined.
2. If dough is sticky, refrigerate for 15 minutes to allow dough to stiffen. Form dough into 1-inch balls.
3. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

*Customize them to your family's tastes by adding coconut, dried fruit, or nuts.
