Cookie Dough Energy Bites

November 3, 2023

These are a delicious and nutritious snack that's perfect for an energy boost. To create these delightful bites, start with your choice of almond butter or peanut butter, providing both a creamy texture and nutty richness. Add a generous 1/4 cup of vanilla protein for that extra punch of energy and protein.

For the perfect bite-sized texture, incorporate 1/3 cup of coconut flour and 1/4 cup of oats. These ingredients add both body and fiber to the bites.

A teaspoon of vanilla extract enhances the flavor, while 1/4 cup of almond or coconut milk adds moisture and consistency to the mixture.

Now, for the delightful cookie dough flavor, don't forget to toss in 1/4 cup of dark chocolate chips. They provide a sweet contrast to the nut butter and make these bites truly indulgent.

Roll the mixture into bite-sized portions, and you'll have Cookie Dough Energy Bites that are perfect for a quick snack or to satisfy your sweet cravings in a nutritious way. Enjoy the taste of cookie dough in every bite while staying energized!

INGREDIENTS

1/2 c almond butter or PB
1/4 c vanilla protein
️1/3 c coconut flour
️1/4 c oats
️1 tsp vanilla extract
️1/4 c almond or coconut milk
️1/4 c dark chocolate chips

STEPS

In a large bowl mix all ingredients with your hands to combine. Add chocolate chips last.
Add a splash more milk if too dry to form balls.
Made 10 balls. Store in the fridge. Good for a week.

Notes: These taste just as good as the traditional energy balls but without sugary add-ins like honey, maple syrup, or dates for that blood sugar balance and feel-good effect to keep you in fat-burning mode. Instead of the crash and more cravings/full of insulin and storing mode.
