Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural creamy almond butter
  • ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
  • ½ cup vanilla protein powder
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon

Topping

  • ½ cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Mix the batter: Add the almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla protein powder, vanilla extract, rolled oats, salt, and cinnamon to a mixing bowl. Use a rubber spatula to mix the ingredients together thoroughly until a thick, sticky batter forms.
  2. Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with wax paper to prevent sticking. Using a 1.5 tablespoon mini cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the batter evenly spaced on the sheet.
  3. Shape the bites: Roll each dropped batter ball between your palms to smooth out the edges and form uniform energy bites.
  4. Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 10-15 second increments, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth. Take care not to burn the chocolate.
  5. Drizzle the chocolate: Generously drizzle the melted white chocolate over the tops of each energy bite, adding a delicious finishing touch.
  6. Chill to set: Place the baking sheet with the prepared energy bites in the refrigerator for 1 hour or until the bites have fully hardened.
  7. Store properly: Transfer the chilled energy bites into an airtight container. Keep refrigerated or store in the freezer for longer shelf life.

Notes

  • Use natural and creamy almond butter for the best texture and flavor.
  • If you prefer a less sweet snack, adjust the maple syrup quantity accordingly.
  • Salt enhances the overall flavor, but you can reduce or omit it if desired.
  • Store the energy bites in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.
