My kids are obsessed with these energy bites. I’m pretty sure they think it’s cookie dough, and they get so excited when I let them have some for breakfast. No one needs to tell them these are healthy!
I love having energy bites on hand. They are awesome for a quick breakfast, and they’re a great snack that tricks you into thinking you’re easting dessert!
Sometimes I make these as pictured, putting everything in the food processor, and sometimes I just mash the banana and stir it all together, leaving the oats whole. I like them both ways. This way kind of tastes like cookie dough, and the other way tastes more like a chewy granola bar! I love playing with different flavors too. These Lemon Pie Energy Bites and these Mint Chocolate Chip Energy Bites are some of our all time favorites!

Banana and chocolate are a wonderful combination for an energy bite. Wish I had one right now. I could use a little energy.

Hi. Is there a substitute for the oats? Thanks!
Stephanie Brubaker says
At this point I have only made these using oats. I will report back if I find a good substitute 🙂

Ok, thank you!

Just finished making these and they’re one of the best energy bites I’ve ever made! I added 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed for added nutrients and 2 tsp vanilla to really bring out the ‘cookie dough’ flavor. My 2 yr old loves them too!
