Coconut Almond Energy Bites
These tasty bites are the perfect snack - they’re easy to make and contain slightly over 7 grams of protein per 2 ball serving. They’re perfect for a meal prep too!
Ingredients
- 14 pitted medjool dates
- 1/2 cup smooth natural almond butter
- 1/3 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/3 cup sliced raw almonds
- 1/3 cup dairy and gluten free mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Rip each date in half and add them to a microwave safe bowl. Make sure to check the dates for any bugs on the inside after ripping them in half. With dates being so sweet, it’s common for them to get some small bugs. Microwave them for 30 seconds to soften them up.
- Add all ingredients to a high speed blender or food processor except for the chocolate chips.
- Pulse until well mixed together - it’s okay if there are still some small date chunks.
- Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the chocolate chips. Mix them in using your hands.
- Roll the mix into 12 balls and store in the fridge when not consuming. Enjoy!
