Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix the Base: In a bowl, combine the almond flour, maple syrup, lemon juice, lemon zest, poppy seeds, shredded coconut (if using), salt, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined; the mixture should be slightly sticky and hold together when pressed.
- Form the Bites: Once the mixture is combined, use your hands to roll it into bite-sized balls, about one inch in diameter. You may want to wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking.
- Chill the Bites: Place the energy bites on a parchment-lined tray, ensuring they aren’t touching. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to help them firm up.
- Enjoy: After chilling, the energy bites are ready to eat. Enjoy them as a wholesome snack or a quick breakfast on the go!
Notes
Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor and store the bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
