Gingery Protein Bites



oh ginger...so yum
More easy raw cookies to make in 5 min or less, what's not to love?

Gingery-nutty cookies with just a few ingredients.  Healthy, spicy and not-too-sweet

Gingery Protein Bites

Ingredients

1 cup raw almonds
1/3 cup raw walnuts
2/3 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, air-puffed/reduced-fat if available
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 tablespoons agave syrup
1-2 tablespoons filtered water
1/4 cup candied ginger (I used Trader Joe's uncrystallized)



Directions:

Food process together, adding a bit of water at a time until desired consistency is reached.  You may need to stop and use a spatula to mix down the sides in between pulses.

this is what you're looking for: combined, sticks together, but not too wet and sticky

Roll into desired size/shapes and there you have it: energy cookies with a hint of sweetness, and a bit of a ginger kick.
