Have you ever had the Aussie Bites they sell at Costco? My family inhales them the couple of times we have had them. They are very good, a bit sweet for my taste, but still good. So while I shopping today at Costco I saw them. I wanted to buy them, but I really shouldn’t be eating them. I took a picture of the ingredients on the package and came home and made my healthy version of them. OMG!! They are tasty morsels. These little bites will not last long.
Our society eats way to much sugar. I looked at someone’s recipe online to see what they had done and couldn’t believe they amount of sugar they said to put into their recipe. Mine has fresh cranberries in it – which you know are not sweet at all. There’s barely a quarter of a cup of honey in these! If you substitute dried apricots or any dried fruit for the cranberries, you should only use 2 tablespoons of honey.
This recipe is a keeper. I think I will need to make a few batches for my little nieces when I visit next time. Maybe even for my kids cause none of them live a home anymore. When you feed these to your family at least you know they are inhaling healthy little Aussie bites!! CRANBERRY AUSSIE BITES PALEO by Jayne Holgate Keywords: snack paleo gluten-free

Ingredients
Instructions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease your 24 a mini muffin pan. This recipe makes approximately 44 mini muffins – but most people do not have more than 1 mini muffin pan. So you will need to use your regular muffin tin to finish using up the remaining dough. You should get an additional 5 or 6 regular muffins. OR this will make 12 regular muffins. Combine in cranberries, raisins, sunflower seeds, coconut and pecans in your food processor. Pulse until they are in small bits. Add almond flour, ground flaxseed, chia seeds and baking soda. Pulse until just mixed. Pour in honey, softened butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Pulse just until combined. Divide batter among the prepared muffin tins. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown. Bake times: mini muffins- 15 – 17 minutes; regular muffins 22 – 24 minutes. Remove pan from oven and let cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove muffins from tin and let cool completely on the wire rack.

I am happy to try these. Since COSTCO changed the packaging to say "Organic", they don't taste good anymore. I used to have two for breakfast every day. What an easy meal! But I quit when they started tasting weird.
