What I love about these No Bake Cranberry Energy Bites is that they are refined sugar free as well. Sweetened with just a touch of honey and dried organic cranberries. Maple syrup, agave syrup or brown rice syrup would also work well.

They make a great snack for toddlers and kids and they’ll have fun helping you make them too. We love making a double batch and enjoying them straight from the fridge when we need a quick pick me up.

Cranberry Energy Bites No Bake

  • be sure to use gluten free rolled oats if you have a gluten sensitivity – I use Bob’s Red Mill
  • the peanut butter / almond butter can be swapped out for any nut or seed butter you like – peanut butter, sunbutter, cashew butter or pumpkin seed butter would work as well
  • shredded coconut can be left out if you’re not a fan – just use extra oats, almond flour, oat flour (I use Bob’s Red Mill), groundflax or protein powder instead
  • swap out the cranberries for nuts or cacao nibs if you like – cashews or almonds would be great!
