Equipment

Ingredients

1 ¼ cups rolled oats
¾ cup coconut shreds
½ cup almond flour
2 tablespoons hemp seeds (see notes)
4 teaspoons spirulina powder (see note)
1 tablespoon vanilla protein powder
2 tablespoons maple syrup
3 tablespoons coconut oil softened
2 tablespoons mini white chocolate chips (I used Enjoy Life dairy-free white chocolate chips)
1 teaspoon matcha powder optional

Cups - Metric

Instructions

Place the oats and coconut in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Add the remaining ingredients (except for the chocolate chips) and pulse for a few seconds.
Use a spatula to push down the ingredients and pulse again until the ingredients are combined. Test the batter. It should stick together between your fingers. If not, add a tablespoon or two of maple syrup and pulse to combine.
Add the chocolate chips and pulse in short bursts until combined.
Roll the dough into bite-size balls, and roll in matcha powder for a beautiful presentation.
Store energy bites in an airtight container to maintain moisture. They can be kept in the fridge for up to 10 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
