Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten Free Organic Old Fashioned Rolled Oats (100 g)
• 1 cup Shredded Coconut (80 g)
• 2 Tbsp Organic Golden Flaxseed Meal (13 g)
• ⅓ cup Tahini (80 g)
• 6 Dates, pitted (45 g)
• ¼ tsp Kosher Salt
• 1-2 Tbsp Coconut Oil, melted (15-30 mL)
• ¼ cup Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips (40 g)
• Sesame Seeds or Shredded Coconut to coat, optional

Instructions

1. In a food processor, blend oats, coconut, flaxseed meal, tahini, dates and salt together until a dough just begins to form, about 2 minutes. Stream in 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil, adding additional coconut oil if necessary to form a dough. The oatmeal dough should stick together when gently squeezed but not be overly oily.
2. Add in chocolate chips and pulse 8-10 times, just until the chocolate pieces have dispersed.
3. Using a cookie scoop or measuring spoon, divide the oatmeal dough into twelve 2 tablespoons portions. Gently squeeze the dough together in the palm of your hand then roll into a ball. Repeat with remaining portions. Optionally, roll in sesame seeds or shredded coconut to coat.
4. Place the oatmeal bites onto a parchment lined sheet and freeze until firm, about 10 minutes. Store the oatmeal bites covered in the refrigerator for about a week or in the freezer for up to a month. If storing in the freezer, let them warm up and soften a bit before enjoying.
