1 cup raw oats
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup peanut butter (other nut butter)
2 tablespoons cacao powder
pinch of salt
2 tablespoons instant coffee powder
In processor, blend oats to a powder. Add all the other ingredients.*
Wet your hands. Use a tablespoon to scoop out dough and roll between your palms to form balls. Refrigerate.
Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
*If your dough is a little too dry, add more honey.
Brew the coffee according to your taste. Break each slice of bread into 1-inch pieces and place in four serving bowls. Fill each bowl with steaming coffee. Add sugar and cream to your taste and stir. Serve hot.
