Mix the Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the oats, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), freeze-dried raspberries, ground flaxseed, chopped almonds, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until everything is well combined and the mixture starts to stick together. -
Form the Bites
Use your hands to roll the mixture into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If the mixture is too sticky, dampen your hands with water to make it easier to roll. -
Chill the Bites
Place the energy bites on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up. -
Serve and Enjoy
Once chilled, your Raspberry Almond Energy Bites are ready to enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
