This No-Bake Energy Bites recipe is easy to make, full of feel-good ingredients, and so irresistibly delicious!! I’ll admit, a few years ago when I first posted a pic of these , I had never even heard of no bake energy “bites”. But now, after so many of my friends loving them, countless batches of them made in my kitchen, and more new variations of them popping up each day online, I think it’s safe to say that no bake energy bites are now officially a “thing”.

This is a slight different version from my earlier days of making them :)) YIELDS: ABOUT 2 DOZEN
These little no bake energy bites are the perfect healthy snack!
