Matcha Manuka Honey Energy Balls

These days it feels like everyone is busier than ever, and it can be hard to both squeeze in time to make healthy meals and snacks, and to eat them! Between work, school, hobbies, socializing and children or pets, we are really all on the go, constantly. The quicker and easier something is to eat, the better it is from a time perspective. However, foods that are quick and easy to eat aren’t always very healthy or energizing.

Our Matcha Manuka Honey Energy Balls are the best of all worlds. They require just a few simple ingredients and are easy to whip up in no time. They are also easy to eat before you head out the door, or can be packed and eaten throughout the day, without requiring dishes, silverware or even sitting down! You can snack on Matcha Manuka Honey Energy Balls anytime of day, whether you’re at home, in the car or office, and they will fill you up and provide nutrition and energy your body craves.

Matcha dates back to ancient times - it was first used around the 8th century, and became more popular and widely used in the 12th century. Though it may seem like matcha is just a trendy ingredient as of late, it’s actually been widely used for more than a thousand years. Its health benefits have been recognized for centuries. Matcha has many health benefits, including being full of antioxidants and vitamins, improving skin, offering a non-jittery energy boost, it is good for the bones, and more.

Manuka Honey is a superfood and has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Manuka Honey also offers a natural boost of energy. Manuka Honey and matcha are the ultimate pair to use in a healthy snack. And, the almond butter this recipe calls for offers protein which helps satisfy.

These Matcha Manuka Honey Energy Balls are filling, energizing and delicious. Sweetened just enough with Wedderspoon Manuka Honey and the white chocolate coating, they taste like a treat, while offering healthy, substantial energy and nutrition. They are small and bite-size, making them easy to eat with just your fingers and take on the go. They’re ideal for a snack mid-day or before sports practice or a big meeting.
