Coffee Date Bites

These Coffee Bites have always been a go-to hit whenever I bring bike snacks on a ride. They were actually one of the first recipes I have ever shared on my IG way back when. I partnered with Enve to share this recipe with you guys! If you aren’t familiar with Enve they make some of the best wheels and bike components that are all made in the US!

These coffee bites are the perfect bite of energy pre-run or mid-ride. Whenever you choose to snack on these you cant go wrong…well maybe don’t eat them before bed. I like to make a bunch a keep them in my freezer this way I always have homemade bike snacks ready to go!
