Energy Bites

Looking for a delicious, nutty and healthy snack? I’ve got you covered.

These Energy Bites are made with just 5 simple ingredients you can recognize, spell and pronounce. No chemicals or added sugars! But instead of focusing on what they don’t have, let’s talk about what they do — rich and decadent sweetness, healthy fats, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory benefits.. it also happens to be one of the easiest things to make! 

INGREDIENTS

  • 8-10 dried Medjool dates, pitted
  • 1/4 cup almonds
  • 1/8 cup chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp sunflower seeds
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter
  • shape into balls and roll in coconut flakes or cacao nibs if you like!
  • Optional: shredded coconut, cacao nibs

 

DIRECTIONS

Place dates into a high-power blender or food processor. Pulse dates and nuts until you've reached a smooth consistency. Scoop mixture onto a flat, non-stick surface, preferably parchment paper. Form mixture into 1-inch balls, about the size of a ping-pong ball. Roll in coconut flakes or cacao nibs if you want to switch up the flavors and add some crunch to your bite!
