Golden milk protein bites with oatmeal, coconut oil and spices

Golden milk protein bites are a nutritious and delicious snack that combines the health benefits of turmeric, ginger, and other spices with the wholesome goodness of oatmeal, coconut oil, and almond butter. These protein bites are perfect for a quick energy boost and are easy to prepare.

Instructions:

1. Prep Your Ingredients: Begin by measuring all your ingredients accurately. Set them aside to ensure a smooth mixing process.
2. Get Your Oatmeal Ready: Place the 1.5 cups of multi-grain oatmeal in a mixing bowl. Ensure that the oatmeal is evenly distributed.
3. Melt the Coconut Oil: In a small saucepan, melt the 1/4 cup of coconut oil over low heat until it is completely liquefied. Alternatively, you can microwave it in a microwave-safe bowl for about 20-30 seconds.
4. Mix the Dry Spices: In a separate small bowl, combine 2 tsp of sugar, 1 tsp of turmeric powder, 1 tsp of ginger powder, 1/2 tsp of red pepper, and 1 tsp of cinnamon. Mix them well to ensure even distribution.
5. Combine Oatmeal and Spices: Add the mixed spices to the bowl of oatmeal. Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure that the spices coat the oatmeal evenly.
6. Add Wet Ingredients: To the oatmeal mixture, add 1/2 cup of applesauce and 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
7. Integrate the Coconut Oil: Pour the melted coconut oil into the mixture. Stir well until all the oatmeal is coated.
8. Add the Nut Butter and Honey: Add 1/4 cup of almond butter and 1/4 cup of honey to the mixture. Stir until everything is well combined and you achieve a thick, cohesive consistency.
9. Final Touch with Almond Milk: Add 1/3 tbsp of almond milk to help bind the ingredients together, making the mixture more pliable and easier to form into bites.
10. Shape the Bites: Line a baking sheet or a large plate with parchment paper. Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into bite-sized balls and place them on the prepared sheet or plate.
11. Chill to Set: Place the bites in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow them to set and firm up.
12. Serve: Once set, your Golden Milk Protein Bites are ready to enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Tips:

- For added texture and flavor, consider adding chopped nuts or dried fruit to the mixture.

- Make sure to thoroughly mix the ingredients to ensure even distribution of spices and sweetness.

- If you prefer a firmer bite, refrigerate the mixture for an hour before shaping into bites.

- Store the protein bites in an airtight container in the fridge to keep them fresh for up to a week.

- Feel free to adjust the level of spices according to your taste preference.

Enjoy your homemade golden milk protein bites as a healthy snack any time of day. Not only are they packed with nutrients, but they also offer a delightful blend of flavors and spices that will keep you coming back for more.
