What You’ll Need for Matcha Bites

Switch It Up Your Way
Dust with cinnamon for a bit of warmth, or sprinkle extra coconut for more sweetness. If you want to keep carbs super low, try swapping the maple syrup for a sugar-free sweetener and double-check your coconut isn’t sweetened.
Best Storage for Energy Bites
Stick your bites in a sealed container in the fridge and they'll stay fresh for up to seven days. Freezing isn’t the best option since it messes with the texture and they won't be as tasty.
Fun Twists and Tasty Toppings
Want more crunch? Roll your bites in shredded coconut or dust with matcha powder. Throw in chia seeds, chopped nuts, or a pinch of salt for a little punch and nutty goodness.

Culinary matcha's totally fine. Fancier stuff’s more intense in taste.
- → Too crumbly to roll?
Just splash in a little extra maple syrup or add a bit of coconut oil till it sticks right.
- → How long do they keep?
Keep them cool in the fridge and they’re good for a week. Pop them in the freezer if you want them to last longer.
