Energy Bites Recipe at: Stephanie-spring.comEnergy Bites Recipe at: Stephanie-spring.comThere are so many recipes out there with hundreds of combinations of ingredients for energy bites. I’d be lying if I said I was determined to create my own recipe. The reality is, I was hungry one night, made a concoction and realized that what I made held together so much better than the original recipe I used. Better yet, it took a mere ten minutes to create and no time at all to harden. The best part is, these babies are so filling! I whip up about a batch of these every other week and eat them for snacks, breakfast, or really any time of day. Stir, refrigerate, and enjoy a bite-sized punch of energy with a ton of flavor!

Ingredients:


  • 1 cup dark chocolate morsels
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cups uncooked oats
  • 1 banana (mashed)
  • 2 tbsp. whole ground flax seed
  • 1/4 cup flaked coconut

Directions:

In a small sauce pan melt the morsels and peanut butter together over medium low heat. Stir occasionally to avoid burning. In a mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Once the morsels and peanut butter are completely melted, pour over the dry ingredients. Stir. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll the energy bites into one inch balls and place on the baking sheet. Refrigerate for about an hour. Enjoy!
