GRANOLA BITES

• Line a work surface or baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
• Pulse dates, almonds, maple syrup, vanilla and salt in a food processor until the mixture forms big sticky clumps. You want chunks of nuts left. Pulse in cherries, oats and sunflower seeds, scraping the bowl occasionally, until the mixture forms a shaggy mass around the blade.
• Put the coconut in a shallow dish. Use a 1-ounce (1 1/2-tablespoon) cookie scoop or a heaping tablespoon to scoop the mixture into about 24 mounds and place on the parchment paper. Roll the scoops into balls.
• Roll each ball in the coconut to coat completely, then transfer to an airtight container. Sprinkle any leftover coconut over the balls. Refrigerate until ready to eat.

VERY BERRY GRANOLA BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Brush 20 mini muffin cups with 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil.
• Combine the oats, 1/4 cup strawberry preserves, cinnamon, salt and remaining 2 tablespoons coconut oil in a large bowl. Spread the granola evenly on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted and almost dry, about 15 minutes.
• While the granola bakes, chop the cashews, almonds, blueberries, cranberries and cherries until they are roughly the size of oats. Place in a large bowl. Remove the baked oats from the oven and add to the bowl with the chopped fruit and nuts.
• In a separate small bowl whisk the egg white until frothy. Drizzle the egg white over the granola mixture and toss to combine, making sure everything is evenly coated with the egg white. Set aside.
• Divide the granola mixture evenly between 20 mini muffin cups. Firmly press the mixture with the back of a spoon so it comes even with the top of the tin. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
• Remove the bites from the oven. Place the remaining 1/4 cup strawberry preserves in a microwave-safe cup and microwave until warm, about 30 seconds. Brush the tops of the bites with preserves and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let the bites cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the pan and serve immediately, or cool completely and store in an airtight container at room temperature for 4 to 5 days.
