Energy Balls – 33 Recipes for Healthy Energy Bites

Simple, no-bake Energy Balls are nutrient-dense and taste sweet and satisfying. They are double-duty recipes as both quick bite-sized breakfasts and healthy on-the-go snacks.

Energy bite recipes usually only require simple pantry ingredients. Things like rolled oats/old fashioned oats, flaxseeds, and shredded coconut. They can include a mixture of healthy fats like all kinds of nut butter from peanut butter to cashew butter.

A natural sweetener like honey, maple syrup, or brown rice syrup means these bites are refined sugar-free.

Energy ball recipes are also so easy to make! Stir up a batch in a mixing bowl or a quick blitz in a food processor. They are the BEST for healthy food prepping – keep them in the freezer for weeks in an airtight container.
