These energy bites not only hit the spot for something sweet, they’re also nutrient-dense and hit all your macros, thanks to the healthy fats from the coconut and macadamias or cashews, the carbohydrates from the oats, and the protein of the chia and hemp seeds. If you choose to add an algae powder such as spirulina or chlorella, they become even more supercharged with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory powers.
Ingredients
28 to 30 bites
Step 1
In a food processor, combine all of the ingredients and pulse until the mixture is evenly chopped and beginning to stick together and form a ball. Transfer the “dough” to a medium bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Step 2
Using a small ice cream scoop, or about ½ tablespoon measure, portion the dough into balls. Roll each ball with your hands to make it smooth.
Step 3
Sprinkle shredded coconut or coconut flakes onto a plate and roll the balls in it to lightly coat. Store the bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or the freezer for up to 1 month.
