This time of year always makes me want to get outside and change up my workouts. I mean, the weather is SO amazing right now! I really like running outside, going for walks, and doing these bleacher workouts. It’s one of the best times of year to get outside and get fit!
I also tend to work out harder when I exercise outside vs. in the gym. Does anyone else feel that way? I’m not sure why that is. Maybe it’s the simple fact that I’m changing up the workout, or maybe it’s the fact that I usually have a friend (or the hubs) with me that motivates me to push harder. Either way, a great pre and post workout snack is a MUST!
These Honey Oatmeal No-Bake Energy Bites are a great way to fuel up or recover from a workout!
Honey is a staple food in our household, so OBVS it needed to be incorporated into these Honey Oatmeal No-Bake Energy Bites. 😉 After all, what would life be without honey to celebrate those golden moments? Like an epic workout with a friend in the most perfect weather. It’s a great way to celebrate!
I actually received this workout themed party pack the other day (containing pure honey) and it was a great reminder to take the time to enjoy and celebrate those golden moments in life. ALSO, did you know this month is National Honey Month?? Even more reason to incorporate honey into everything 😉 And to make these Honey Oatmeal No-Bake Energy Bites!
So grab a friend, grab some water, make a playlist, and let’s celebrate life with honey and these Honey Oatmeal No-Bake Energy Bites!

Could something else be used besides flaxseed and shredded coconut?
We don’t have these on hand and want to try this today.
Thanks.
Christine McMichael replied:
You could try whole wheat flour, oat flour, almond flour, or chia seeds. And I would just omit the coconut instead of trying to replace it. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
