Can I substitute the almond butter in this recipe?

Yes, you could try other creamy nut butters like cashew or peanut butter, but be aware that the flavor profile of your bites will change accordingly.

Why is coconut flour used in these bites?

Coconut flour is included to help absorb moisture and bind the ingredients together, which contributes to the firm, no-bake texture of the bites.

How long do these Cinnamon Raisin Almond Butter Bites need to chill?

The recipe specifies refrigerating the formed mixture for at least 10 minutes, which allows the bites to firm up properly before serving.

Can I add other mix-ins to these almond butter bites?

Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with additions like mini vegan chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or finely chopped nuts, adjusting the coconut milk slightly if the mixture becomes too dry or wet.

How should I store leftover Cinnamon Raisin Almond Butter Bites?

Store these bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where they will maintain their firm texture and freshness for several days.

Notes

The recipe reflects just a small batch: it makes 3-4 pieces, because I know my tendency to eat the whole entire tray regardless of how much there is, so I like to nip that ickiness in the bud by only making as much as I’d be okay with eating in one go…. if say, I did. ;) Feel free to double or triple the quantities if you’d like to make more, or if you have a voracious roommate or partner who might like to help polish these off.
