Don't you just love a healthy snack that tastes good too!? These are perfect for a little boost of energy anytime of day! They will not only suffice your hunger... they will leave you satisfied for hours! Happy healthy eating!
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup nut butter (use any kind you like. Peanut, almond, hazelnut..the choice is yours!)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
3 tbsp raisins (any dried fruit will work)
pinch of salt
1 tbsp vital wheat gluten
1 tbsp oat flour
1 tbsp wheat germ
2 tbsp whey protein (I used vanilla flavored)
1/2 tbsp flax seeds
1 tbsp sunflower seeds
1/2 tbsp sesame seeds
(I love the texture of all of the seeds but you can use whatever seeds you like or omit them all together)
1 tbsp sugar substitute (brown sugar substitute would be especially good!)
Combine all ingredients in a medium size bowl & taste for any flavor adjustments...more salt? more cinnamon? Got another taste in mind? Give it a try! Drop 1 tbsp size chunks (chunks?) onto a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake @ 350 for about 14 minutes. Store in ziploc bag in fridge for up to 1 week.
Yield: 1 dozen
