Dark Chocolate & Cherry Energy Bites

 

There are thousands of energy bite recipes online because they are so simple to make while being delicious and nutritious at the same time. By simply combining some nuts, dried fruit, and flavors of your choice, you can easily create a grab-and-go snack in under 10 minutes flat. I’ve actually shared some energy bite recipes on the blog before, including my Carrot Cake Energy Bites, so these dark chocolate cherry energy bites are just another flavor you can add to the mix.

Inspired by black forest cake, these energy bites are a naturally sweetened, gluten-free snack that can help to satisfy a sweet tooth in a much healthier way.
