Total Time: 6 Minutes

Yields: 12 balls

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the heated nut butter and coconut oil until smooth. Add maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, coconut and oats and mix until well combined.
  2. Wet hands slightly and form dough tightly into 1″ – 1.5″ balls. If dough doesn’t stick together add 1/2 tablespoon water (or melted coconut oil) at a time until dough comes together or place dough in the fridge for 30 minutes prior to forming dough balls so it’s easier to handle.
  3. Garnish each energy bite by pressing one almond in the center, if desired.
  4. Store in airtight container in refrigerator or freezer until ready to enjoy.

Notes

If traveling, it’s best to keep these in a cooler if you can.
