Tuesday it was rainy here so I used the time inside to stock up on more snacks. It is so convenient to have snacks on hand for outing days and I especially like to have enough to stock the freezer. I made a big batch of maple syrup roasted almonds and enough energy orbs to last us a little while.
This batch started with the usual equal-ish amounts of ground almonds and dates with some ground flax, cinnamon and a bit of concentrated orange juice, then I added some hemp seeds and ground dried apricots. Yum!
The next morning I made some more pumpkin muffins with some of the vast quantity of pumpkin I froze in the Fall. I thought these would be a great snack for an afternoon at the BMX track with our homelearning group. Too bad I forgot the container I packed them in at home.

You make the best snacks! I'm in love with the energy orbs you make and the maple almonds are so addictive...
Hmmm... I should be getting the pumpkin out of our freezer and make some of this yummy muffins. Do you add raisins to your pumpkin muffins?
Great to have snacks to hand if you remember to take them Heather! x
I add raisins to one batch and leave the other plain, something for everyone that way. ;-)
I think I might designate the boys as the official snack packers from now on, Louise, that way I won't have to be relied upon to remember. ;-)
