After making these birthday cake energy bites, I knew I had to whip up another yummy flavor. I know you’ll LOVE these ones too! You can scroll down to the recipe card for the full list of ingredients and measurements.
Medjool dates: Dates are a wonderful source of protein and iron and add natural sweetness to these energy bites. Dates can be found pitted and un-pitted; I like to buy the pitted dates for ease when chopping but taking the pit out really isn’t a hassle either! Walnuts: Rich in omega-3s fatty acids and anti-inflammatory nutrients. They’re a great way to add extra nutrition and flavor to these bites. I like to store our walnuts in the fridge, covered and they will last up to 6 months or even frozen for 1 year. Peanut butter: Choose a creamy peanut butter as opposed to a crunchy variety. Or, opt for almond butter or cashew butter. Andes mints: I usually buy the rectangular mints wrapped in foil but you can also purchase them in baking chips now too. Either option works! Oats: Use the quick 1 minute oats or oat flour. You can pulse the oats in a high powdered blender or food processor to make into a powder/flour. Cocoa powder: Any unsweetened cocoa powder or your favorite cacao powder will work!
