Notes
- Store on the counter for the day and refrigerate for 2 weeks or freeze for up to a month
- You can roll these in maple sugar instead of cane sugar. These bites could obviously also be rolled in ground nuts instead of cinnamon sugar if you want to cut down on sugar.
- Turn these into Gingerbread Energy Bites by adding some ground ginger, cloves, allspice, vanilla and use molasses instead of maple syrup.
- Make sure to remove your nut butter from the fridge in time. This makes it way easier to mix with the maple syrup.
- For some crunch add some chia seeds or stir in some hemp seeds to up the protein.
