Directions
- Line a rimmed baking pan with foil. Pierce potato 6 times with a fork; heat on a microwave-safe plate in microwave oven on high 8 minutes or until very tender. When cool enough to handle, cut potato lengthwise in half; scoop flesh into a small bowl. Discard skin; refrigerate 5 minutes or until cooled completely.
- Purée bananas, ⅔ cup oats, seed butter, peanut butter powder, syrup and potato in a food processor on high until smooth; transfer to a large bowl. Stir in quinoa, chocolate chips and remaining 1 cup oats. Makes about 3½ cups.
- Place coconut in a wide, shallow dish. Roll potato mixture into 1½-inch balls with wet hands, then roll in coconut and place on prepared pan; cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours. Makes about 24 bites.
