Serves: 12
Ingredients
  • 1 cup quick oats
  • ¼ cup cashew butter (could sub almond butter)
  • 2-3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 lemon (about 2 tablespoons zest)
  • ½ tablespoon poppy seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ⅓ cup coconut, toasted
Instructions
  1. In a small skillet, toast shredded coconut flakes over low heat until golden brown and fragrant, stirring often. This will only take a couple minutes, and it can burn quickly, so watch closely!
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together all ingredients until combined.
  3. Roll into balls (I got about 12-14 small/medium balls); make them as small as big as you want!
  4. Keep lemon energy bites in fridge for 1-2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to a couple months!
