Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Chocolate-Dipped Strawberry Energy Bites:
  • 1 cup rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed into powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • For the Pink Coconut Cashew Truffles:
  • 1 cup raw cashews, soaked 2+ hours and drained
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, plus more for rolling
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon beet powder (for color)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  1. Make the Energy Bite Dough: In a medium bowl, combine oats, almond butter, maple syrup, cocoa powder, strawberry powder, vanilla, and salt. Stir until a thick, uniform dough forms.
  2. Shape and Chill Bites: Roll dough into 12-14 balls. Place on a parchment-lined plate and freeze for 30 minutes.
  3. Make Truffle Filling: In a food processor, blend soaked cashews, coconut, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, beet powder, vanilla, and salt until smooth and clumpy. Chill mixture in fridge for 20-30 minutes.
  4. Roll Truffles: Place extra shredded coconut in a bowl. Roll chilled cashew mixture into balls, then coat in shredded coconut. Place on a plate.
  5. Melt Chocolate: Melt dark chocolate chips with coconut oil in a double boiler or microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring well.
  6. Dip Energy Bites: Dip each chilled energy bite halfway into melted chocolate. Let excess drip off and place back on parchment. Optionally sprinkle with strawberry powder.
  7. Set: Let chocolate harden at room temperature or in fridge for 15 minutes. For best texture, let truffles firm up in fridge for 20 minutes before serving.

Notes

For nut-free version, use sunflower seed butter and seeds. Chill energy bite dough thoroughly before dipping to prevent mess. If truffle mixture is sticky when rolling, chill longer or dampen hands lightly. Store all treats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
