  • In a stand mixer bowl fitted with a beater attachment, add all of the ingredients.  Mix until completely even, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and mix one last time.

  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl.  Cover and refrigerate overnight.

  • Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough out onto a plate.  Roll the dough scoops into balls.  Serve and enjoy, or store in the fridge.

The recipe above is my revised recipe. I originally posted a Matcha Green Tea White Chocolate Energy Bites recipe back in 2016, but wanted to simplify the recipe.  Just in case you wanted to see the previous recipe and/or the changes I made, I’m providing the old recipe here:

  • ½ cup Macadamia Butter (I used homemade! Cashew and almond butter also work)
  • ⅔ cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Creme-Flavored Stevia Extract
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • heaping ¼ tsp Salt
  • 1¼ cups Quinoa Flakes
  • ½ cup Quick Cooking Oats
  • 3 tbs Coconut Flour
  • 1 tbs Matcha Powder
  • 1 cup Chopped White Chocolate (I used homemade!)

I originally added white chocolate to the recipe because the matcha + white chocolate combination is UNREAL.  However, when I got around to making the recipe a couple weeks ago, I realized I didn’t have any of my homemade white chocolate on hand…  so I omitted it and it was A-OK!

Yeah, I guess you could say I have a pretty well-ROUNDED diet.  Heh heh heh, get it?  😉
