Homemade nut milk is beneficial for so many reasons, one being all the possible recipes you can make with the leftover nut pulp! Crackers, hummus, pizza crusts... and energy balls of course!
These Sticky Protein bites are made with the leftover Cashew pulp from homemade Cashew milk. I used my Ellie's Best nut milk bag to strain out all the liquid I could, then put the pulp directly in my food processor - no need to dry out or cook! They have been nice enough to offer you all a code: granoladiaries for a discount on your Ellie's Best bag!
Once I had the pulp in the food processor, simply add all the ingredients, process, roll, cool, and eat! So simple.
