Matcha Goji Berry Energy Bites
Ingredients
- 1 cup organic Medjool dates, pitted
- 1/2 cup raw organic almonds
- 1 tablespoon organic ceremonial grade matcha powder
- 1/4 cup organic dried goji berries
- 1 teaspoon organic maca powder
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

- 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan pink sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1
In a food processor, combine the 1 cup of pitted organic Medjool dates and 1/2 cup of raw organic almonds. Process until a sticky, crumbly mixture forms, about 1 to 2 minutes. This creates the foundational texture for your energy bites.
⏱️ 2 min - 2
Add the 1 tablespoon of organic ceremonial grade matcha powder (rich in antioxidants for cellular health), 1 teaspoon of organic maca powder (an adaptogen known to support energy and balance), 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon of Himalayan pink sea salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract to the food processor. Process again until a cohesive, slightly sticky dough forms that holds together when pressed. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
⏱️ 3 min - 3
Add the 1/4 cup of organic dried goji berries (packed with vitamins and minerals for vitality) and 1/4 cup of organic unsweetened shredded coconut to the food processor. Pulse a few times, just until the goji berries and coconut are incorporated but still have some texture. Avoid over-processing to maintain distinct pieces of goji and coconut.
⏱️ 2 min - 4
Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Using your hands, roll the mixture into approximately 8 to 12 evenly sized balls, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter. For an extra boost of flavor and visual appeal, place the remaining 2 tablespoons of organic unsweetened shredded coconut on a small plate and roll each energy bite in the coconut to coat.
⏱️ 5 min - 5
Arrange the finished energy bites on a plate or in an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up, which enhances their texture and makes them easier to handle. These nutrient-dense bites are perfect for a quick, wholesome snack.
