Cookie Dough Bites
If you’re a raw cookie dough lover, these are for you! Made with cashew butter, maple syrup, oats, almond flour, and chocolate chips, these taste just like oatmeal chocolate chip cookie dough. They’re healthy too! I love keeping a batch in the fridge to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Recipe Notes:
Store in a covered container in the fridge
Cashew butter is key is achieving the cookie dough flavor. It’s milder in flavor than peanut or almond butter.
Almond flour is preferred over almond meal. The difference? Almond flour is finer and is made from blanched almonds, while almond meal is made from raw unpeeled almonds.
