Maple Date and Nut Snack Bites make a nutritious snack that’s naturally sweetened with maple syrup and dates. Packed with nuts, almond butter and hemp seeds they’re a great source of protein, omega 3 fats and essential minerals such as phosphorus, magnesium and iron. Easy to mix together and pack in your lunch or stuff in your back pack or purse to give you a healthy energy boost throughout your day or satisfy your sweet tooth.  A great change from that ordinary granola bar.  Enjoy!



Recipe source for Maple Date and Nut Snack Bites: Â Compelled To Cook
- 1 1/2 cups pitted dates about 10 ounces
- 1 cup hemp hearts
- 1 cup whole almonds
- 1 cup pecans
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 4 tsp cocoa
- 1/2 tsp maple extract

Will keep refrigerated for several days in a sealed container or can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 3 months. I usually opt to freeze and remove snack bites as needed.
