Raw Cookie Dough Bites

I found a Super Delicious Recipe over at Perry'sPlate.com It was SUPER delicious, But I made a couple of changes so I thought I'd share it here in-case you wanna make it the way I did!!! ENJOY!

((Grain, Sugar, Dairy, & Egg-Free))

Yield: about 15 bites

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

2 cups blanched almond flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup coconut oil melted
2 Tablespoons honey
2 Tablespoon peanut butter
2 teaspoon GF pure vanilla extract
2 handfuls mini carob chips (if you have too many it will prevent you from forming balls)

Directions:

Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the oil, honey, peanut butter, and vanilla in a separate, smaller bowl. Pour wet mixture into the dry mixture and combine well. Your own two hands to the best job of getting it all combined. If you find the mixture is too dry and crumbly, add a tablespoon of water at a time until you reach cookie dough consistency.

Mix in the desired amount of carob chips and roll into 1 to 1 1/2 inch balls.

Store in the refrigerator. They should keep for several days, although they tend to dry out the longer they are stored. (If they last that long...)

Nat's Notes:
1. The more you work the dough, the more the coconut oil will melt, resulting in the balls getting greasy. Return the dough to the freezer to re-harden if this bothers you.
2. This recipe doubles well.

3. You can even make these in a food processor. Just process the dry ingredients and add the wet ones once you've mixed them together. For those who don't like to get their hands messy...
