Ingredients

Scale

Energy Bites

  • 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 Ingredients: Add almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla protein powder, vanilla extract, rolled oats, salt, and cinnamon to a mixing bowl. Use a rubber spatula to thoroughly combine until a thick batter forms.
  2. Form Balls: Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Using a 1.5 tablespoon mini cookie scoop, portion out balls of the batter onto the sheet. Roll each ball between your palms to smooth the edges.
  3. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 10-15 second increments, stirring each time, until melted and smooth. Take care not to overheat or burn the chocolate.
  4. Drizzle Chocolate: Drizzle the melted white chocolate evenly over the tops of the energy bites to add a sweet finishing touch.
  5. Chill: Place the baking sheet with the energy bites in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or until the balls have hardened and set.
  6. Store: Transfer the energy bites to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

  • Use natural creamy almond butter without added sugars or oils for best texture and flavor.
  • Salt is used to balance sweetness—adjust to taste if desired.
  • These energy bites keep well refrigerated or frozen for extended freshness.
  • Vanilla protein powder enhances the flavor and protein content but can be omitted for a vegan or lower protein version.
