These No Bake Energy Bites became my go-to snack when I was pregnant with our second child.
They were the perfect thing to eat when I was craving something sweet because they satisfied me and yet were still relatively healthy. Definitely better than the Oreos or ice cream that I often felt like eating!
And now my kids love snacking on them too!
Thankfully, they’re super easy to mix up and you can even freeze them. I like to save time by making a double batch and then freezing half of them. It’s such a great way to make sure we always have a healthy snack in the house!

I love these for my afternoon slump. I make them with raisins and sometimes pecans. My recipe doesn’t have vanilla and I can’t wait to try that addition.
ThriftyFrugalMom
Pecans would be a yummy addition! And I think you’ll like the extra flavor the vanilla gives. In my opinion it kind of makes all the other flavors pop a bit more.
