No-bake peanut butter energy bites are loaded with protein and healthy fats. Enjoy at breakfast or for a quick snack on the go. Loaded with almonds, dates, and oats. No extra sugars added!!!
I kept this recipe simple, however, you can add your favorite dried fruit or chocolate chips to add sweetness. You could also roll the energy bites in shredded unsweetened coconut or cacao powder. These energy bites go fast in my house so we store them in the fridge. If you live a busy life on the go, you can freeze them and take them from the freezer on your way out the door. They will be thawed for when you need a boost of energy.
I am excited for you to try these delicious energy bites.
