Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 cup freeze-dried raspberries (or fresh raspberries, mashed)
- 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
- 1/4 cup chopped almonds
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the oats, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), freeze-dried raspberries, ground flaxseed, chopped almonds, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until everything is well combined and the mixture starts to stick together.
- Use your hands to roll the mixture into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If the mixture is too sticky, dampen your hands with water to make it easier to roll.
- Place the energy bites on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up.
- Once chilled, your Raspberry Almond Energy Bites are ready to enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Notes
- Feel free to substitute the almonds with other nuts or seeds for different flavors.
- For added sweetness, adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to taste.
