She emailed me with a non-paleo recipe of energy bites that were combined using oats and asked if I could come up with something! I love her. Well, oats make poop float in your bloodstream, and I personally don’t want that, so I came up with my own little version of energy bites. And they taste like heaven. Laura said she liked them because they weren’t overly sweet. I personally don’t think there is such thing as “overly sweet” but you get my flow.[/fusion_person]

[fusion_old_tab id=1]
- 2 Tbsp. chia seeds
- ¼ cup goji berries
- Juice of one whole orange
- Zest of one whole orange (make sure that it is washed really well or organic)
- 1 cup raw almond flour (homemade)
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- ½ cup shredded coconut
- 2 Tbsp. melted coconut oil
- ½ cup almonds roughly chopped
- 1 Tbsp. sesame seeds
- 1 Tbsp. sunflower seeds
- 2 Tbsp. Macadamia nuts
- ¼ cup coconut nectar or maple syrup or yacon syrup or raw honey (if not vegan)
- ¼ cup date paste
- ¼ cup cranberries – chopped
- ½ cup pitted medjool dates – chopped
- Pinch Himalayan sea salt
- 1 cup desiccated coconut (for rolling in)

- Mix the chia seeds and goji berries with the orange juice and zest and set aside to make the gel. Add the rest of the ingredients in a large bowl (except for the desiccated coconut for rolling the balls in) and mix thoroughly.
- Add the chia seed & goji berry mixture and mix again. It is best to use your hands so don’t be afraid to get them dirty!
- Roll the mixture into ball shapes and then cover them in desiccated coconut.
- You can set them in the freezer before serving for about 1 hour.
- Alternatively you can dehydrate them on high (60 degrees) for 1 hour and then dehydrate on 40 degrees for around 8-10 hours. This will give them a nice crispy finish.
