No Bake Blueberry Energy Bites Recipe

Blueberry Energy Bites

Energy bites, protein balls, bliss balls- Whatever you call them, they are one of the easiest and portable snacks to have on hand. It’s no secret that I am a snacker and energy bites are my go-to. I’ve recently shared my whole30 energy bites and brownie no bake bites. These blueberry muffin energy bites are similar, but a little different.

The other week, my friend gifted me a bunch of dried blueberries. Unlike other dried fruits, blueberries aren’t particularly flavorful. They aren’t the kind of dried fruit that tastes good on its own. However, when made into energy balls, it is another story.

These raw blueberry energy bites taste like a doughy blueberry muffin. They are sweet, tangy and chewy, and perfect to prep in advance. Blueberry energy bites make the perfect snack between meals, and unlike most energy bites and balls- They contain no dates and are secretly low carb- Perfect for those following a paleo, keto, gluten-free and vegan diet. 

Healthy No Bake Blueberry Muffin Energy Balls

Blueberry Muffin Energy Bites Ingredients

  • Coconut Flour
  • Blanched Almond Flour
  • Monk Fruit Sweetener
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Dried Blueberries
  • Coconut Oil
  • Milk of choice 

How to make Blueberry Muffin Energy Bites

Step 1: Prepare your ingredients and sift your coconut flour, to ensure no lumps remain.

Step 2: Add all your ingredients into a food processor or high-speed blender. Blend very well, regularly scraping down the sides. The energy bite batter is done once a thick batter remains. 

Step 3: Transfer the blueberry muffin energy bites batter into a large mixing bowl. Using your hands, form into 12-16 small balls. 

Step 4: Refrigerate your blueberry muffin energy balls until they firm up. 

NOTE- If you don’t have a food processor/high-speed blender, you can use just a mixing bowl. The only changes I’d recommend is to ensure your coconut oil is melted and to fold in the blueberries at the end. You will likely need to add some coconut milk, as the batter will be crumbly.

Tips and Tricks to Perfect Blueberry Energy Bites 

Taste your energy bites batter before forming into balls. If it isn’t sweet enough, add a little extra sweetener or even a drop of two or liquid stevia. 

If your energy bites batter is too thin, add a little extra coconut flour. If it is too thick, add some coconut milk or water, until it is less crumbly. 

You can use fresh blueberries, but ensure you pat out any excess moisture from them. Your energy bites will be darker in color.

  1. Mmm blueberry muffin is my favroite kind, right next to apple cinnamon, banana walnut & lemon poppyseed…ah how can you make me choose just one favourite ! It’s funny, I always buy raisins, dried apricots & dried cranberries but never even thought to look out for dried blueberries. As soon as I get my hands on a packet, I know what I’ll be making- these look great buddy!

    PS I think I’m going to hang on to the ‘Blueberry Muffin’ nickname- it’s rather endearing ;)!

  2. Love the looks of this recipe! My nickname in high school was doodles – I wouldn’t call it lame though, I liked it 🙂 It just fit.

  3. Not going to lie, it is kind of badass to read in Chinese. And maybe she called you Humpty Dumpty because she knew you would be a) such a stud and b) a foodie and c) you were egg-cellent.
    Blueberry muffins have to be one of the most nostalgic American foods, period. Especially with the crumb topping. gah. sooooo good.

  4. These look incredible! perfect idea for when you want a muffin, but don’t wanna turn on the oven!

  5. You are definitely a creative genius!! I looove blueberry muffins..think I’ll make these today. Travel safely!!!

  6. My aunt also had nicknames for me and my cousins…I was Cupcake (often shortened to Cups), one cousin was Punky, and the other was Sweet Pea. And actually she’ll still sometimes call us by those nails. I don’t really think too much of it until someone unfamiliar is nearby and then I realize it’s kinda weird to call a 25-year-old Cupcake. Haha.

  7. You’re amazing with these no bake recipes! I also love that these don’t require dates (which I feel like are in a lot of no bake types of treats) because I never remember to buy them at the store! haha

  8. Why yes, I WILL take a whole batch of these….thanks for asking. 😉 I think once my Whole30 is over, I need to make a version of this with some dried cherries. YUM!

  9. Woohooo! This means that I won the Facebook contest! #Right …or was it #Left? Either way, I’m all about the blueberries, too. Blueberry muffins have long been a morning favorite of mine…and I’m digging the energy ball version you created here. Hmmm…collecting dust in my pantry right now? I’d say several spice blends that I picked up along the way. I love spice blends, but they’re difficult to use when trying to write up a recipe since I don’t know the exact proportions of spices that went into said blends. Also, my nickname in college was Diggity. Not sure exactly why. It just was. Glad that one fell by the wayside.

    1. Hahaha yes. Purely for the hashtag. Oh spices, they are the worst- I just chuck and pray for the best!

      Diggity ey? Maybe people said No to you a lot. I like the way you work it, No Diggity.

  10. These look fantastic! I bet the texture is wonderful. Make me some, and I promise to never call you humpty dumpty. 😉

  11. I was Peanut all the way up to high school…I was always a ‘little nothing’ in terms of physical size who’d then impress everyone because I looked 3-5 years younger and sounded the same amount older than my age 🙂

  12. My grandpa used to call me, “Bridget Gidget”…
    My mom STILL calls me “Little Bridget”
    I have canned green chilies collecting dust in my pantry. I haven’t needed them in a while, and it’s kind of driving me crazy.
    My favorite muffin is definitely banana nut!

  13. Ugh…I have SO many grains in my pantry right now! Multiple kinds of rice (I think at least 6 versions??) quinoa, flours, gluten free mixes, oats…. The list goes on. I really need to work on thinning out my supply! These energy balls sound really good!

  14. Two things I notice about a lot of your recipes (beside no bake) is 1) balls and 2) breakfast cookies. 🙂 lol! I think if I made half the stuff you post I’d be 500 pounds. lol! Hope the transition to the US goes well!
