The Best Energy Bites – Vegan and gluten-free low in sugar protein bites, ideal for snack and grab-and-go
A while ago, I came up with this recipes because I wanted an easy grab-and-go snack for my husband. He travels all the time and I try to make him easy things to travel with that don’t need to stay in the fridge.
All you need is a good food processor to get a smooth mixture.
The energy bites are absolutely perfect as a snack and super easy to travel with. Just put them in a ziploc bag or tupperwear and that’s it. They can stay in your bag without any risk but I recommend to leave them in fridge to optimize preservation.
Hemp, chia and flax seeds are superfoods rich in protein. I was looking to make a healthy snack, low in sugar but high in fat and protein. It’s the best way to feel full. They are very feeling thanks to the nut butter and seeds but also the blended oats. In this recipe I used cashew butter and it’s absolutely divine! First time I have been using it and I’ll do it again. I have been cashew butter in my smoothies since I have discovered it.

These look so easy and healthy! I love grab and go snacks! I have a HUGE bag of hemp seeds and now I know at least one thing to make with them 🙂
I LOVE energy bites! But I’ve always mixed my seeds into them – never used them on the outside for added crunch. What a great idea!
These look INCREDIBLE! I love that there are three flavors to choose from. I’m going to try to make these soon and will definitely tag you on Instagram! Thanks for sharing the recipe. 🙂
