Healthy Hemp Heart Energy Bites (No Sugar, Paleo Option) Recipe
Healthy hemp heart energy bites made with no sugar—an easy paleo, GAPS-friendly snack packed with protein, healthy fats, and real-food energy.
Equipment
- 9x13 pan
- unbleached parchment paper
- measuring cups
Ingredients
- 1 cup nut butter (we like almond and peanut best)
- 1/2 cup raw honey (or more to taste)
- 1/2 cup hemp hearts
- 1/2 cup chia seeds or ground flax seeds (optional)
- 1 cup rolled oats (optional)
- chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- First, add nut butter and honey to a mixing bowl and mix until well combined.
- Next, add in the hemp hearts, chia seeds, and flax seeds and mix well.
- If desired, stir in additional mix-ins, such as oats or chocolate chips and mix.
- Next, roll mixture into golf ball sized shapes.
- Store in the fridge or freezer. When stacking the bites, layer a piece of parchment paper in between to prevent sticking.
Notes
- Depending on the amount of mix-ins or variations in the recipe, you might need to adjust the amount peanut butter and honey. The consistency should be such that it is easy to roll into a ball without crumbling (too dry) or sticking (too wet).
- For a quick alternative to "bites", press mixture into a 9x13 pan and serve as "bars".
