Ingredients

For the cookie dough bites

112g almond flour
4og oat flour
80g of unsalted peanut butter
2 tbsp of honey
85g of dark or unsweetened choc chips
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
large pinch of salt

Instructions

Step 1:

In a bowl mix together the almond flour, oat flour and pinch of salt till combined.

Step 2:

In a separate bowl. mix the vanilla, peanut butter and honey until fully combined and makes a smooth paste. Leaving all the ingredients at room temperature an hour prior to making can help with this.

Step 3:

Start adding the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture but intersperse with choc chips so they are evenly spread throughout the mix.

Continuing bringing together until you have a dough-like consistency formed.

Step 4:

Place a piece of parchment paper on a baking tray and lightly grease with some low cal oil spray. It doesn’t need much as the peanut butter contains lots of good oils.

Using a teaspoon spoon a little of the mixture then form into a ball and place evenly on the tray.

Step 5:

Place this in the fridge and chill for at least an hour. The longer the better.
