Tips:

Place the energy bites in a sealable container and refrigerate them. They will keep for up to four weeks.
To freeze energy bites, place them in a freezer-safe ziplock bag and put them in the freezer for up to 6 months.
For more manageable and workable nut butter, warm the peanut butter in a microwave-safe dish for 10-second sessions for softened nut butter.
Try using almond or cashew butter.
Add more nut butter if the mixture is too dry.
