Description

Naturally sweetened energy bites packed with the perfect combination of peanut butter and chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Pitted Dates
  • 1/4 cup Peanut Butter or Almond Butter
  • 1/4 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 1 tbsp Flaxseeds
  • 2/3 cup Oats
  • 2 tbsp Chocolate Protein Powder

Instructions

  1. Place the dates into a food processor or blender. Blend until they are broken down into very small pieces or they form a ball.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients to the food processor or blender. Blend until the ingredients are combined, about 30 seconds. (You may need to stop and scrape down your bowl if the peanut butter sticks to the side!)
  3. Using a 1-inch scoop or tablespoon, scoop the mixture and then roll gently in your hands to form them into ball shape. The recipe should yield about 15 balls.
  4. Place the bites into a container and then pop them in the fridge. Let them set for 15 minutes (if you can wait that long!), enjoy!
