Peanut Butter Brownie Energy Balls
We’re always looking for healthy treats and here’s our latest hit: this no bake energy balls recipe. These little balls are naturally sweetened with dates and taste like peanut butter brownie bites! You need only 5 ingredients and they’re the perfect sweet treat to grab on the go—or sneak as a bedtime snack (me). Alex and I can’t resist them, and of course our kids are obsessed.
These energy bites came about when I was on the Daniel Fast and really needed a treat without sugar or natural sweeteners (maple syrup and honey). Turns out, Medjool dates are just the thing for making an all natural healthy energy bite that fills your chocolate cravings!
