Enjoy a few hearty, vegan snack bites when hunger strikes. They're also great for breakfast alongside a protein-packed smoothie or bowl of yogurt. Although the ingredient list is short, they're delicious and flavorful. The banana provides the perfect amount of sweetness without overpowering the entire recipe.

1ripe banana
1cupraw cashews
1cup unsweetened, shredded coconut
1cupquick rolled oats (gluten-free if necessary)
1heaping tablespoondrippy almond butter
2teaspoonground cinnamon
2teaspoonvanilla extract
pinch of salt
Instructions
In a food processor, add your banana, cashews, and shredded coconut. Pulse until evenly combined (30 seconds - 1 minute). Scrape down the sides if necessary.
Add in the rest of the ingredients. Pulse. The mixture should form into a ball, but if it is too dry, slowly add in 1-2 tbsp of warm water.
Scoop out spoonfuls of the dough (1-2 tbsp each) and roll into balls. Place in the fridge, covered, for 30 minutes. Dig in!
These will last for up to a week in the fridge, but they can be eaten at room temperature. Feel free to grab a ball or two on your way out the door.
