Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup raw cashews divided
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 1/4 cups old fashioned oats divided
  • 1/2 cup cranberries dried

Instructions
 

  • Place 3/4 cup of the cashews in a food process and process until nut butter forms, about 8 minutes.
  • Scrape down sides of the food processor bowl, then add the maple syrup, vanilla and sea salt. Process until incorporated.
  • Add 1 cup of the oats plus the remaining 1/4 cup cashews and dried cranberries. Pulse until well incorporated.
  • Transfer mixture to a bowl, then stir in the remaining 1/4 cup oats. (It's easier to just use your hands at this point).
  • With slightly wet hands, roll dough into small balls (about 1 tablespoons worth) or use a small cookie scoop. Store in refrigerator for up to 1 week. These freeze really well too.
