- 1 ½ cup Kodiak Cakes Buttermilk Chia Flapjack & Waffle Mix
- ½ cup creamy cashew butter must be all natural, where the natural oil occurs at the top-- this contributes to the texture of the energy bites
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- 2 ½ tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 6 oz white chocolate chips
- ¼ cup shelled pistachios
In a large mixing bowl add in Kodiak Cakes Buttermilk Chia mix, cashew butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract and melted coconut oil. With a spatula mix until thoroughly combined like batter. Then pour in the dried cranberries & mix them in until evenly distributed
Line a baking sheet with wax paper and start to roll out the energy bite, each energy bite uses about 1 heaping tbsp of energy bite batter. Freeze for 30 minutes
In a small bowl start to melt your white chocolate chips in 30 second increments in the microwave. Then take your pistachio and pulse them in a blender until they are bite sized pieces
Take your energy bites out of the freezer and using tongs, you will toss them in the white chocolate and then IMMEDIATELY sprinkle pistachios on top. Do this one by one, or else the white chocolate will cool and the pistachios will not stick to the top if you wait to sprinkle it on after all are tossed.
Then let them set for 10 more minutes in the freezer and then store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 weeks or refrigerator for 1 week.
