Directions

1

Add the oats, chia seeds, and cinnamon to a large bowl and mix well.

Smash the dates in a bowl and then mix with the applesauce to make it a thick liquid. Add to the popcorn and then, if you are willing, put on a pair of gloves and then mix the ingredients with your hands. This will help to make sure that the date mixture is covering each piece of popcorn.

Form into small 2 inch balls, place on a baking sheet or in a bowl and enjoy. These can be refrigerated until ready to enjoy.
