Apricot Oat Energy Bites

These no-bake energy bites are naturally sweetened with dried apricots and balanced with oats, coconut, and a hint of cinnamon. Perfect for a midday snack or a post-workout boost, they’re quick to make and easy to love.

Chef’s Tip: For a smoother texture, soak the dried apricots in warm water for 5–10 minutes before blending.
