Strawberry Coconut Energy Bites
Oat and coconut bites with concentrated strawberry flavor from freeze-dried fruit, rolled in extra coconut for texture.
Servings 14 bites
Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Zip top bag
- Food Processor
Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed into small pieces
1/3 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, plus extra for rolling
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt powder
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons almond butter
Instructions
1. Crush the freeze-dried strawberries in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin, or pulse briefly in a food processor. Aim for small pieces, not a fine powder.
2. In a bowl, combine the oats, crushed strawberries, coconut, and Greek yogurt powder.
3. Add the honey and almond butter, then mix until fully combined and the mixture sticks together when pressed.
4. Roll into balls and coat lightly in the extra shredded coconut.
5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Greek yogurt powder can usually be found in the baking or protein supplement aisle. If you can't find it, the recipe still works without it, though the bites will be slightly less tangy.
