Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural creamy almond butter
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons peppermint extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ teaspoons salt
  • ½ cup chocolate protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup quick oats
  • ½ cup rice krispies cereal
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, use a rubber spatula to thoroughly combine all the wet and dry ingredients until the mixture is even and well blended.
  2. Form Balls: Use a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop to drop portions of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with wax paper.
  3. Shape Bites: Roll each scoop of mixture between your hands to form smooth, uniform balls.
  4. Chill and Store: Refrigerate or freeze the energy bites until firm. Once set, transfer them to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for 2-3 months.

Notes

  • Use natural creamy almond butter for the best texture and flavor.
  • Adjust salt to taste depending on your protein powder’s salt content.
  • The peppermint extract provides a refreshing mint flavor—use pure extract for best results.
  • If you prefer a different crunch, substitute rice krispies with puffed quinoa or crushed nuts.
  • These bites are best stored chilled to maintain firmness.
