Cinnamon Caramel Apple Bites

This healthy no bake snack is quick and easy.  The whole family will love the flavor of a sweet and sticky caramel apple with a hint of cinnamon.   Made with dates which contain anti-inflammatory and anti-infective properties.  Making this snack an excellent food for those who suffer with chronic infections and auto-immune disorders.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup pitted dates

1 cup dried apples (not freeze dried, chewy ones)

1/2 cup oats

1/2 tsp cinnamon

If you can't find dried chewy apples, then you can dice up an actual apple.  However, here is where you would need to play around.  The apple makes the mixture super wet.  So you would need to adjust the measurements to reduce the amount of diced apple and increase the oats.  Or add in a scoop of vegan vanilla protein powder to dry up the mixture.  

Directions:

1. Combine all the ingredients in a food processor and process until it forms a thick paste.  A blender works to, but the food processor makes for an easier clean up.

2. Using about a tablespoon of the mixture, roll into balls.  Enjoy!
