Sesame Granola Bites

I'm baaaaack!  We've been so blessed since bringing honey #3 into our house; I haven't had to cook a meal since she's been born thanks to our VERY generous friends and family!!  But now, I'm on a rampage.  My almost-2-year-old wants to snack.  And snack, and snack, and snack some more.  Weary of giving him apple slices, string cheese, and gold fish, I wanted to come up with some more interested and fortified snacks to offer.  Here is one:

Sesame Granola Bites

Ingredients:
1/3 c oats
1/3 c shredded coconut
1/4 c almonds
1/4 c walnuts
1/4 c sunflower seeds
1/3 c sesame seeds
2 Tbs chia seeds
 4 Tbs ground flax
1/3 agave (can sub maple syrup)
1/3 c almond butter
2 Tbs mini  chocolate chips (optional)

1.  Line a 8x8 or 9x9 pan with parchment paper.
2.  In a food processor, pulse the oats and coconut flakes until finely ground.  Remove to a bowl.
3.  Then pulse the almonds and walnuts to your desired consistency.  (I have a toddler so I ground them fine, but older kiddos and grown ups might prefer a roughly chopped nut.)
4.  Add the ground/chopped nuts to the oat and coconut mixture.
5.  Stir in sunflower seeds, flax, and sesame seeds.
6.  In a glass bowl, combine the almond butter and agave and microwave for 30 seconds to soften.
7.  Stir butter mixture into oat mixture until well combined.
8.  Press into parchment-lined baking dish. Store in fridge.
