Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats Forms the base, offering fiber and nutrients.
  • 1 cup almond butter Natural almond butter without added sugars.
  • 2 tbsp honey Can be substituted with maple syrup for a vegan option.
  • 1/4 cup dried raspberries Choose quality berries with minimal added sugars.
  • 1/4 cup chopped almonds Adds crunch; other nuts can be used as substitutes.
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut Unsweetened is best for tropical flavor.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract Enhances overall taste.
  • 1/4 tsp salt Balances the flavors.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond butter, and honey. Mix well until everything is beautifully combined and forms a sticky mixture—about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Fold in the dried raspberries, chopped almonds, shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Using your hands, roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. (Pro tip: Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking!)
  4. Place the energy bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm them up.
  5. Transfer the energy bites to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freeze for up to 3 months. You can customize by adding different dried fruits or using sunflower seed butter as a nut-free option.
