ALMOND OAT ENERGY BITES

2 1/2 cups Rolled Oats
1/2 cup Sunflower Seeds
1/2 cup Organic Raisins (very important – grapes are a highly sprayed crop)
1/2 cup Organic Dark Chocolate Chips
1 tsp. Cinnamon
2 servings of Pea protein
1/2 cup Almond Butter
1/3 cup Honey

Grind 1/2 cup oats and 1/4 cup seeds in food processor until powdery. Combine remaining 2 cups oats, remaining 1/4 cup seeds, raisins, chocolate chips and cinnamon in large bowl. Add oat/seed powder and mix well. Stir in almond butter and agave nectar in a small bowl until smooth. Transfer to dry bowl and mix until soft dough forms - you may need to add some water if the mixture is still dry. Moisten hands, and roll dough into 1-inch balls. Place in freezer 20 minutes to set, then serve or store in the fridge.
