Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup pitted Medjool dates, packed
- 1/4 cup smooth almond butter
- 2 tablespoons dried blueberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place all ingredients into a food processor.
- Process the mixture until it forms a sticky, uniform dough. Stop and scrape down the sides as needed.
- If the mixture seems too dry, add 1 teaspoon of water or lemon juice at a time until it holds together when pressed.
- Roll the dough into small, bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
- Place the finished energy bites on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Notes
- Store leftover energy bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- You can substitute sunflower seed butter for almond butter to make this nut-free.
- For a stronger blueberry flavor, lightly chop the dried blueberries before adding them to the food processor.
