Chef's Tips

If the mixture is too dry, add a little more maple syrup or almond butter, one teaspoon at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency.

If the mixture is too wet, add a little more rolled oats or shredded coconut.

Store the energy bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for up to a month.

For a chocolate version, add 1-2 tablespoons of cocoa powder to the mixture.

You can substitute the dried mango with other dried fruits like apricots, cranberries, or raisins.
