Ingredients
  

These no-bake strawberry bites come together with just a few simple ingredients:
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries chopped into small pieces
  • 1 sleeve graham crackers around 9 full sheets
  • ¾ cup almond flour
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil
Optional swap: You can use vegetable oil, canola oil, or avocado oil instead of coconut oil if needed.

Method
 

    Step 1: Crush the Graham Crackers

    Place the graham crackers into a food processor and blend until they turn into fine crumbs. You want a sandy texture with no big pieces left behind.

    Step 1: Crush the Graham Crackers

    Place the graham crackers into a food processor and blend until they turn into fine crumbs. You want a sandy texture with no big pieces left behind.

    Step 3: Mix in the Almond Flour

    Add the almond flour and pulse again just until the mixture comes together into a soft, scoopable filling.

    Step 4: Shape the Bites

    Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion the mixture into small rounds and place them onto a parchment-lined tray or wax paper. You should get about 16 bite-sized balls.

    Step 5: Chill Until Firm

    Transfer the tray to the freezer for 20 to 30 minutes so the bites can firm up and hold their shape.

    Step 6: Melt the White Chocolate

    While the bites chill, combine the white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, then heat again in short intervals until smooth and fully melted.

    Step 7: Coat the Bites

    Take the chilled strawberry balls out of the freezer and dip each one into the melted white chocolate until fully coated. Place them back onto the lined tray.

    Step 8: Add Topping (Optional)

    For extra crunch and that classic shortcake vibe, sprinkle a little crushed graham cracker over the top before the coating sets.

    Step 9: Let Them Set

    Return the bites to the freezer for about 5 minutes, or until the chocolate shell is firm.

    Step 10: Serve and Store

    Once set, they’re ready to enjoy! Keep leftovers in the refrigerator so they stay fresh and hold their texture.

Notes

Helpful Note

Honey graham crackers add a little extra sweetness and flavor, but regular graham crackers work perfectly too.
