There are combos in life that just go together, like avocado and toast (or tbh- avocado with anything) or a burger and fries. But is there anything quite as classic as pb & j? Growing up, I had this combo all the time (yup, we were allowed to bring nut butters to school). And this was a classic for a reason. The sticky nature of the peanut butter combined with sweet jam makes perfect sense. I wanted to create all those same nostalgic feelings, so I created these PB & J energy bites.

Coconut Fat Bombs (Gluten Free, Paleo and Vegan)

Maybe you want to hide them in the freezer so you don’t eat them all so quickly, I definitely will do that myself next time. …

Because they are super rich, chocolatey and contain so much goodness in terms of the ingredients. I love to have them on hand for whenever I need a quick boost of energy or want a snack. They are great to keep in the fridge or freezer for whenever you get the urge. And with these chocolate energy balls, that urge can happen a lot because they are THAT good. …
