Nut Butter Bites
By Fitness and Freebies
These are SO simple to whip together! Just take the 3 ingredients, mix together, shape into balls and roll in chocolate nuts, coconut or sesame seeds. Since these are such a snap, we're also including a bonus recipe - tasty Chocolate Chews, made with reduced fat cream cheese and given a nice crunch with crunchy peanut butter and walnuts. A bit more fancy for when you want to show off!
Recipe Ingredients
1/4 cup nut butter
1/2 cup ground nuts
1/4 cup apple concentrate or honey

Mix to a stiff consistency. Shape into balls and roll in chopped nuts, coconut or sesame seeds.
Nut Butter Notes: Vary your nut butters always using raw unsalted kinds. Try sunflower seed butter or coconut butter for different flavor treats. Use Nut Butter to stuff dates, prunes, etc.
