Cranberry Orange Almond Bites

This is one of those great recipes that you can mix with pretty much any combination of nuts and dried fruit to make a healthier 'fruit snack' of sorts.  I molded these into mini ice cube trays for bite sized pieces and we all loved them.
If you are new to essential oils, or simply don't want to use them, these would still be great without them.  I happen to love the added boost of citrus flavor.

Cranberry Orange Almond Bites
Recipe idea from Chocolate Covered Katie

1/2 c. craisins
1/2 c. sliced or slivered almonds (or cashew pieces)
6 Tbsp. quick oats
1/8 tsp. salt
5-10 drops wild orange essential oils (or lemon)

Place all ingredients in a food process and process very well, until dough becomes sticky and clumps together.
Form into balls or press into mini molds or ice cube trays.
Store at room temperature for up to 5 days.
