The story behind this recipe:
About two years ago, I started to focus on my hair health. My hair was getting thinner, more brittle, falling out ... eeeeek! After a lot of research I decided to start making changes to my diet to support my hair. The first thing I did was add a biotin supplement to my diet.
I have been taking biotin* for almost two years. When I had the chance to partner with Nature Made® Biotin Adult Gummies. I jumped at the opportunity.
Why? Nature Made® has the first gummies certified by USP for purity and potency. You can purchase these at your local Walmart. Nature Made® is a gummy you can trust.
Everyone is different so always discuss changes to your diet with your doctor.
Nature Made® tests its gummies for purity and potency so you get the added assurance that it has the nutrients you’re seeking. Plus, they are an easy way to add biotin to your diet. *Taking biotin daily may help support healthy hair, skin, and nails if you are biotin deficient .†

I can’t decide what my favorite flavor is. The orange, the cranberries…the familiar cinnamon and oatmeal, or the almond and almond butter.
Feel free to make these energy bites with your own favorite ingredients. Add sunflower seeds or chia seeds for even more flavor and texture. Or swap out the cranberries for mini dark chocolate chips or raisins. If you like this recipe, you should also check out our Fresh Apple Oatmeal Muffins.

What is the serving size and calories
Teri
Hi, Miss Jean. I have updated that information. It may vary a little based on the brand and exact amounts of honey and almond butter used, and sweetened vs unsweetened coconut, but approximate information is 3 energy bites per serving, about 280 calories. See above for the full nutritional info. 🙂

I love making energy bites. It's great how you can swap out one ingredient to suite your own taste buds, or your family's. These sound so tasty!
Teri
I cannot wait to make them again. They are so good. The orange zest really brightened the flavor.
Noel Lizotte
I'm going to eat the whole plate for breakfast! Not that I need that much energy, but because they look that good. Watch out world at how much I'm going to accomplish with all that energy!
Teri
Lol, you sound like me. I would stop at the fridge for two or three every time I walked through the house. Breakfast...snack...dessert...just because.
Veena Azmanov
I love making energy bites. The balls are always kid friendly. Love that you added almond butter. I love almond butter too - more than I like peanut butter really!! This looks so healthy and nutritious.
Teri
I am 100% with you, I like almond butter BETTER than PB. It is so good. I am going to start using it in more recipes.
Gloria Duggan
This is the perfect little snack for after school, or after a workout....even to tuck in a bag and take on a hike. No bake treats are the best, and you can get the kiddos to help make them too. Fun and tasty for everyone.
Teri
They are my new favorite little treat, that is for sure.

Your energy bites sound ideal as a post-workout snack. I'm always looking on something to munch on and these would be perfect. I love that you don't have to bake them. Great to have on hand.
Teri
They are a little pick me up that is good for you, too.
Catherine
Such a perfect snack for the week and I love that they are no-bake too!
Teri
They turned out great, very easy to make and a great way to incorporate some fall flavor.

Valerie Gray (@valmg)
My hair isn't falling out in huge clumps yet but it's always been thin and prone to winding up in the drain. These energy bites look like they have great texture.
swathi
These kinds of energy bites did wonders. especially during the after noon hunger pangs. I too use Biotin for my hair and nails. Love your version of energy bites.
Jean Pfeiffer
What can I use in place of coconut?
Teri
Hmmm...you could use chopped dates. That would give it the sweetness and some stickiness to help bind them together. For the same texture, you could use shredded carrots but you would want to refrigerate them quickly to prevent browning. Let me know if you try them with substitutions, I would love to know how they turn out.
