Cashew Cookie Lactation Energy Bites (vegan, gluten-free, oil-free)

Ingredients

  • 12 Medjool dates, pitted (soak in warm water for 10 minutes if your dates are dry)
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1/2 cup cashews
  • 4 tbsp Brewer’s yeast, or adjust according to your taste buds (make sure it’s the debittered kind)
  • 1/4 cup cashew butter
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions

  • Place all the ingredients, except the water, into a food processor. Process until everything is broken down into little pieces and combined. It will look crumbly.
  • Add the water and process until the dough is sticky when you pinch it together in-between your fingers. If it is still too dry, add a little bit of water, 1 tsp at a time, and pulse until you get the right consistency.
  • Roll into balls. I used a cookie scoop that was 1.5 Tbsp. Place on a plate and put it in the freezer for at least an hour before putting it in an airtight container. Store in the freezer. Enjoy!
Servings: 16 bites
