Makes: 16 to 18 bites

Ingredients:

1 ⅓ cups rolled oats

¼ cup chopped or sliced almonds

¼ cup hemp seeds

½ cup almond or peanut butter

¼ cup 100% maple syrup

1 teaspoon lemon zest

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 teaspoon ground turmeric

Pinch sea salt

Pinch freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Add the oats, almonds, and hemp seeds to a medium bowl. Mix in the almond butter, maple syrup, lemon zest, lemon juice, turmeric, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Cover a small tray or plate with parchment paper. Roll the mixture into tablespoon-size balls and place them on the tray.
