Quickly pull together wholesome, no bake snacks by mixing tangy raspberries, smooth almond butter, and crunchy almonds. Bursting with protein, these bites pack lasting energy into each mouthful, and you'll have them ready in just 15 minutes. You don't even need your oven for this one.

After tons of testing in my kitchen, I found that pairing almond butter with dried raspberries makes the flavors pop. You get both creamy and tangy in every bite, plus energy that sticks with you.

Tasty Elements

  • Coconut: For a hint of the tropics
  • Natural honey: Helps everything stick together and adds sweetness

Getting the perfect balance of each ingredient and rolling them well is the magic here. Every snack gives you just the energy you want.

Awesome Combos

Toss a couple with your morning coffee. Pair with a smoothie. They’re great with fresh fruit or some Greek yogurt if you want an extra protein lift.

Fun Twists

Swap out different nut butters. Mix in dark chocolate bits. Try other dried berries. Go plant-based with maple instead of honey.

Simple Storage

Pop them in the fridge for up to a week. Freeze for up to three months and thaw a bit before snacking if they're frozen solid.

A cookie scoop makes matching sizes easy. Chill first if rolling gets hard. Keep an eye on the mix—not too wet, not too dry. Sweeten more or less, just how you like it.

I always end up making these whenever I want a healthy snack. They taste like a treat, but you’re actually fueling up with good stuff every time.

What You'll Need

→ Main Ingredients

01 1/4 cup shredded coconut
02 1/4 cup chopped almonds
03 1/2 cup rolled oats
04 1 cup almond butter
05 1 tsp vanilla extract
06 2 tbsp honey
07 1/4 cup dried raspberries

Steps to Follow

Step 01

When the balls are nice and solid, toss them into a container that seals tight. They'll hang out in your fridge for about a week, so you can grab a snack anytime.

Step 02

Spread the finished bites on a tray with parchment and stash them in the fridge. It takes at least 30 minutes for them to get set.

Step 03

Scoop up the mixture and make balls about an inch wide. Too sticky? Just chill the whole batch in the fridge for 10 minutes, then try again.

Step 04

Add in the dried raspberries, salt, coconut, chopped almonds, and splash in that vanilla. Give it all a mix so every bite has some of everything inside.

Step 05

Put the almond butter, oats, and honey in your biggest bowl. Mix well until you see it all stick together and everything is coated.

Additional Notes

  1. Need vegan? Swap honey with maple syrup.
  2. Throw in some chia seeds or dark chocolate chips for more taste and goodness.
  3. Stash them in your freezer and they'll last around three months.
