Berry Almond Energy Bites Recipes

BERRY ALMOND ENERGY BITES

Steps:

• Reconstitute any of the fruit that is not moist and tender by placing it in a bowl and covering it with warm water. Depending on how dry it is, this could take up to 15 minutes. Drain off the excess water and pat dry with a paper towel.
• Put the almonds in a food processor and process until small pieces form, but before it becomes a paste. Pulse as needed. Add the blueberries, cherries, dates, and flaxseed meal. Pulse until the mixture pulls away from the sides, about 1 minute. If it doesn't, add 1 tablespoon water and process until it does, adding another tablespoon of water if needed. Sprinkle a plate with the coconut and using a 1-tablespoon scoop, portion the mixture into balls, about 24, and drop onto the coconut. Roll in the coconut. Store in an airtight container with any excess coconut in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

BERRY ALMOND BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x9 inch square baking pan. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Remove from heat and add 1 cup vanilla chips, but do not stir.
• In a large bowl, beat eggs until foamy. Gradually mix in the sugar. Stir together the softened chips and butter, and blend into the egg mixture along with the almond extract. Combine the flour and salt; stir into the batter until just mixed. Spread half of the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. In a small saucepan, over low heat, warm the jam to make it more liquid. Spread the jam over the warm crust. Stir the remaining cup of vanilla chips into the batter, then drop the rest of the batter by teaspoonfuls over the jam. Sprinkle with almonds.
• Bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center, comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack before cutting into bars.
