MannaBrew Oat & Date Balls

Chewy, naturally sweet snack bites made with oats, dates, nut butter, and brewed MannaBrew.

Makes: 12 balls

Difficulty: Very Easy

Preparation time: 15 mins (+ 30 mins refrigeration)

Ingredients

• 90 g rolled oats

• 100 g pitted dates (softened if dry)

• 125 g nut butter (almond, peanut, or cashew)

• 30 ml (2 tbsp) MannaBrew, strongly brewed

• 30 ml (2 tbsp) honey or maple syrup

• 20 g shredded coconut (plus extra for rolling)

• 20 g (2 tbsp) chia seeds or flax seeds (optional)

• 1 g (¼ tsp) ground cinnamon (optional)

• 1 pinch fine sea salt

Instructions

1. Prep Dates: If your dates are dry, soak them in warm water or warm MannaBrew for 10 minutes, then drain thoroughly.

2. Blend Base: In a food processor, combine the rolled oats, drained dates, nut butter, sweetener, and 30 ml of brewed MannaBrew. Pulse until a thick, sticky dough forms. (If the mixture feels too dry to bind, add an extra teaspoon of MannaBrew or water).

3. Add Extras: Add the shredded coconut, seeds, ground cinnamon, and sea salt. Pulse a few times just to distribute the ingredients evenly throughout the dough.

4. Roll: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions (approx. 25 g each) and roll them firmly between your palms into uniform balls. Roll each ball in extra shredded coconut for coating if desired.

5. Chill & Serve: Place the balls on a tray lined with baking paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.

STORAGE: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
