In my humble opinion, no-bake energy bites are the perfect snack. I am constantly on-the-go and I find myself having less time (and energy) to bake. However, I still favor homemade snacks over most store-bought alternatives, so anything labeled as “no-bake” is a win for me.
I first stumbled upon the concept of “no-bake” baking when I moved the United States 8 years ago. My mother-in-law made the most delicious no-bake cookies and since then, I’ve been hooked.
While no-bake cookies are a tasty treat, they definitely shouldn’t be an everyday indulgence. When I bought The Minimalist Baker cookbook on Amazon I discovered an incredible healthy no-bake cookie alternative, aka the humble energy bite. SO FREAKING TASTY, and healthy to boot.
Since then, I’ve made no-bake energy bites at least once a week.
These 20 healthy no-bake energy ball recipes are perfect for a post-workout snack, road trip, kids lunchbox snack, or anytime you just need a healthy bite to eat.
If you’re a grazer who loves eating healthy snacks (especially easy-to-prepare, no-bake snacks), then you’re going to rejoice over this! I’ve rounded up my top 20 healthy no-bake energy ball recipes for your snacking pleasure.
