I didn’t realize how much I missed sweet, crunchy, sticky granola until I came up with this recipe. I was looking to make a sweet treat that was convenient for snacking and travelling and granola bites were born!
Jump to RecipeI added in some collagen for an added boost of protein and some tiger nuts because they are not nuts but taste like nuts so your brain will think you are eating nuts so basically they are AMAZING! Anyways, you could totally make these without tiger nuts but they really add to the recipe so if you can get your hands on some I would recommend it. If you tolerate nuts then you could add pecans, almonds or walnuts instead.
You can also find this recipe along with some other deliciousness from some of your favorite AIP bloggers in the new AIP commnuity eBook- Freezer Cooking for the Paleo AIP. Get your copy today by clicking the photo below!
Okay so I don’t really have anything else to say except that you are going to love these! I may or may not have already eaten 3 today…
Happy snacking!
