I love energy bites. Making different variations of them are so fun. You can literally use anything you have in your fridge to create something so delicious. Don’t like cashews, use any nut butter of choice. You can even add chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or something festive like pumpkin spice in the Fall. The possibilities are endless.
For these bites, I decided to use my favorite herb (lavender), and some blueberries. Blueberries are packed with antioxidants and since they are in season, I am using every last bit of them as possible. Nothing like seasonal fruits to make what you’re eating extra special.
So simple and healthy to make using just 8 simple ingredients. You can make a huge batch to store in the freezer and pull them out as needed or put them in school lunch boxes to thaw. My boys really enjoy them and hope you do as well.
