5-Ingredient Peanut Cup Energy Bites- from Minimalist Baker

 

1 c. dates, pitted (if dry, soak in warm water for 10 minutes, then drain well)
3 Tbsp all natural salted peanut butter or almond butter
¼ c. dairy free dark chocolate, roughly chopped
1 Tbsp chia seeds
2/3 c. rolled oats

1. Pulse dates in a food processor or blender until they’re in small pieces or it forms a ball.
2. Add oats, chocolate, chia seeds and peanut butter and pulse or mix until combined. You want there to be consistently small pieces but not overly processed.
3. Carefully roll into 1-inch balls (29-30 grams per ball), using the warmth of your hands to mold them together. Should yield 14-15 balls.
4. To set, pop in fridge or freezer for 15 minutes. Otherwise, eat as is! Will keep fresh in an air-tight bag or container for up to a week. Freeze for longer term storage.
