WFPB Turtle Energy Bites
Healthy Turtle Energy Bites
Equipment
- 1 scoop
Ingredients
- 1 cup toasted pecans
- 1 cup dates
- ¼ cup almond butter or other nut butter
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 cup brown rice crispies, regular or chocolate
Instructions
- If you are using Medjool dates, pit them first. If you are using Deglet dates I would soak them for 20 minutes in warm water to soften them up. I prefer Deglet dates because I make so many bites and Medjool dates can get expensive.
- In your food processor, add the dates and blitz for a minute, add the remaining ingredients except for the rice crispies. Sometimes I even use Chocolate rice crispies which turns up the chocolate flavor. Process until it starts to come together. You can add 1 tbsp of water or the date liquid if it needs help coming together.
- Transfer mixture to a large bowl and add the rice crispies and stir until combined.
- Take a baking sheet and cover with parchment or silicone mat. Using the scoop roll in your hands to make a ball. Place on baking sheet and repeat.
- Put in the freezer and allow to freeze solid. Then transfer to a freezer bag and enjoy whenever you want!
