No Bake Vegan Snickerdoodle Bites
Description
No Bake Vegan Snickerdoodle Bites combine almond butter and maple syrup warmed together, then mixed with almond and oat flours to form a soft dough. The dough is gently rolled into small balls, which are then coated with a cinnamon and cane or coconut sugar mixture for a sweet and spicy exterior. The lack of baking keeps the bites moist and chewy.
The use of almond flour contributes a tender crumb structure while oat or coconut flour adds bulk and keeps the bites grain-free if coconut flour is chosen. Cinnamon is a key flavor element, repeated both in the batter and the coating. The bites are stored well refrigerated for up to two or three weeks or can be frozen for longer storage.
These bites suit those looking for a vegan, no-bake treat with moderately sweet and spiced notes reminiscent of classic snickerdoodle cookies. They can be sweetened differently or rolled in nuts instead of sugar for texture variation or reduced sugar.
Notes suggest using maple sugar rolling instead of cane sugar or adding spices like ginger and cloves for a gingerbread variation. Using room temperature or softened nut butter makes mixing easier. Optional seeds increase crunch and protein.
