Strawberry and Chocolate Covered Strawberry Energy Bites

Who doesn’t like chocolate covered strawberries? This new spin is a nice alternative to the classic decadent treat. It doesn’t have to be Valentine’s Day to enjoy a treat or two, just pop a couple of these bites dipped in cocoa powder to power through your day.

If you don’t care for chocolate, you can opt for the plain strawberry bite which is just as tasty. If you want to add a little extra sweetness, you can dip yours in shredded coconut or powdered sugar.

Strawberry and Chocolate Covered Strawberry Energy Bites

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Energy Bites

Ingredients

  • ½ cup quick cook steel-cut oats (Almond flour will also work.)
  • ½ cup chocolate protein powder
  • ¼ cup vital protein collagen peptides
  • 1 cup strawberries, diced
  • ½ cup chocolate covered almonds
  • 10 pitted dates
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp. coconut oil
  • 1 Tbsp. honey
  • Dark chocolate Hershey’s Cocoa Powder (for dipping)

Instructions

  1. In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the oats, protein powder, collagen peptides and almonds. This will help as a base to bind the rest of your ingredients together.
  2. Add the strawberries, dates, vanilla extract and honey to the oat mixture and blend until a wet dough starts to form. If the dough is too dry you can add the coconut oil little by little until you reach your desired consistency.
  3. Use a tablespoon or ice cream scoop to measure the amount of dough needed for the balls. Then roll the dough around in your palms until a round ball is formed.
  4. Place on a baking sheet and refrigerate for an hour.
  5. Remove the refrigerated bites and dip one side in the cocoa powder.

Heinen's Grocery Store

By Heinen's Grocery Store

In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
