I make these peanut butter chocolate chip energy bites every week. My family and I love them so much! They are great as a snack, an addition to breakfast, or an after-meal treat. By using a mix of almond flour and coconut flour, these protein balls stay low-carb and have a cookie-dough-like consistency.

This recipe is great to make with kids too. My 4-year-old son likes to help me measure the ingredients and then he can roll them into a ball by himself. He also loves eating them, and I love that they are a homemade healthy addition to his diet.

Energy Bite Ingredients:

  • Almond Flour: Naturally low-carb, high in protein, and nutrient-dense. This flour is grain free and high in magnesium, Vitamin E, and prebiotic dietary fiber. It also is finely ground compared to oats which are typically used in energy bites.
  • Coconut Flour: This adds a nice light coconut flavor and is also low in carbs but high in protein.
  • Peanut Butter: Creamy and delicious and high in protein, I eat PB every day. It will help bind all the ingredients together. You could sub almond butter, which I’ve wanted to try too.
  • Hemp Seeds: Also called Hemp Hearts, they have a mild nutty flavor and are rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
  • Pure Maple Syrup: For a natural sweetness and also helps as a binder.
  • Vanilla: Adds a warm flavor that makes it taste like a treat!
  • Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips: This creates a nice crunch and is not too sweet.

The lunch I’ve been eating on repeat for months be The lunch I’ve been eating on repeat for months because it’s quick, balanced, satisfying AND actually keeps me full 🙌🏼

I post the quick recipes I actually eat on repeat — follow along so you never have to think about what to make! 🤍

I’ve been eating some version of this most days a week for the past 4+ months and I still love it!

Save this for your next busy lunch 🤍

• Your favorite tortilla filled with ⅓ cup pinto beans, chicken breast, or ground turkey breast + jalapeño pepper jack cheese 🌯
• ⅓ avocado for healthy fats 🥑
• 2 Tbsp Greek yogurt for extra protein & in place of sour cream 🤍
• Hot sauce because I need a little spice 🌶️
• Grapes on the side for some fruit + fiber 🍇

I meal prep the beans (or meat if I’m switching it up) ahead of time, so the actual lunch comes together in about 5 minutes.

I love that I get protein + carbs + healthy fats + fiber in one easy lunch without spending forever making it.
