- 2 cups pitted dates
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 2 tsp The Spice Girl Kitchen Gingerbread Spice
- 4 tbsp honey
Exterior Coating
- 3 tbsp ground flax seeds
- 3 tbsp Swerve brown sugar
- 1 tsp The Spice Girl Kitchen Gingerbread Spice
Instructions
- Combine all "energy bite" ingredients in a food processor. Process until everything is well chopped and combined. The nuts will be coarsely chopped. Test the mixture by making 1 small ball and making sure the mixture sticks together well.
- Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, on a small plate, combine the "exterior coating" ingredients. Using a spoon, mix until combined.
- Remove energy bite mixture from refrigerator, roll into 15 even balls (using a cookie scoop or tablespoon), and roll each ball into the flax seed mixture. After rolling through the flax seed mixture, give each ball one more roll between your hands to knock off the excess. Serve immediately or save them for snacks throughout the week!
