Sunflower Butter Flax Protein Bites

I make these all the time to put in my son Tristan’s lunch box. You can of course sub in any nut butter of your choice. I use sunflower as we can’t send any meals with nuts to school. These babies are a perfect, filling bite for all ages. 

Makes 10-12 bites

• 3/4 cup creamy sunflower butter
• 1 cup old fashioned oats
• 1/4 cup ground flax seeds
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
• A few dashes of cinnamon 
• 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Combine all 5 ingredients in a medium bowl. Stir to combine. Place in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes so they are easier to roll. Once cool, roll into 10-12 balls + enjoy! I usually freeze them and then pop them into his lunch box the night before.
