These collagen bites are the perfect grab-and-go snack, and taste just like cookie dough! Read below for the recipe and nutrition information!
Recipe Information:
Makes 6-7 balls/servings
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Total time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
1/4 cup flour of choice
2 tbsp nut butter of choice: I love Abby's Better (linked here and in my products section to purchase, use promo code SNACKS4SAR for a discount!)
2 tsp chia seeds
1-3 tbsp almond milk (start with 1 and add more as needed! Completely depends on absorbency of protein powder & liquidity of nut butter)
1 large Medjool date, finely chopped
1 Tbsp dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips
Recipe:
Spread flour on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for 5 minutes. This kills off any bacteria and makes it safe to eat!
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together all ingredients until well combined. Ensure that all dry ingredients are mixed in! Mixture should be cookie-dough consistency.
Form dough into balls and store for up to 1 week in the refrigerator.
Nutrition:
These balls are packed with nutrients!
Chia seeds are highly nutritious! They are an excellent source of fiber, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, thiamin, niacin, and healthy fats (polyunsaturated fat & monounsaturated fat: anti-inflammatory omega-3s and alpha-linolenic acid)! Chia seeds are loaded with antioxidants, which have protective properties for the heart, liver, and cells. They also have anticancer properties! With their extensive list of nutrients, chia seeds are extremely heart-healthy and good for our bones!
Collagen is great for healthy skin, hair, and nails. It is also a great protein source.
Dates: high in fiber and many nutrients! Packed with vitamins and minerals!!
