Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder
1/2 cup almond butter
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup shredded coconut
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, matcha powder, and shredded coconut.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth.
-
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
-
Refrigerate the dough for 15 minutes to firm it up, making it easier to roll into balls.
-
Once chilled, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls.
-
Optional: Roll the energy bites in extra shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.
-
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
Notes
Storage: Keep in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
Sweetener: Swap honey for maple syrup or agave nectar for a different flavor profile.
Consistency: The dough should be sticky but not too wet. Add more oats if it’s too sticky or more almond butter/honey if it’s too dry.
Nut-Free: Use sunflower seed butter if you need a nut-free version.
