 Orange and ginger granola bites

Ingredients 

1/8 cup                                                          Peanut butter powder

 1/8 cup                                                         Water *(see note)

1 tablespoon                                                Flax seed

2 tablespoons                                              Orange juice 

The zest of one orange

2 teaspoons                                                   Freshly grated ginger (or 1 teaspoon dry)

1/4 cup                                                            Molasses 

1 cup                                                               Pecans (halved)** (see note)

1 cup                                                                Lightly salted pepitas 

1/4 teaspoon                                                   Turmeric (optional)

Few grind of black pepper.

Directions 

Put one grate of the oven on the top and one on the bottom.

Preheat the oven at 350°F.

Make peanut butter by mixing 1/8 cup of peanut butter powder and a little more than that of water. Add 1 tablespoon of flax seeds and 3 tablespoons of water, mix and let rest 5 minutes.   Meanwhile gather the other ingredients then add them. Mix well and use the 1/4 cup to create bite size clusters.

Cook 10 minutes on the bottom self of the oven and 10 minutes on the top one.  Let rest 5 minutes and enjoy. It is so satisfying,  just one is a breakfast for me.

This recipe was born because I was out of maple syrup, orange peel candies and ginger candies.  If you have all that, here's the original :

* note : I think next time I'll use the juice of the orange instead of water and maybe the chopped pulp as well (I hate wasting fibers).  

** note : I'm sure whole almond would work too.
