If atoms are just energy did energy create all matter

The parts of an atom all have mass. The mass is very tiny but there is mass none the less. Proton and Neutrons each have about the same mass. Electrons however have very little mass compared to protons and neutrons.

All of an atoms components, neutrons, protons and electrons have mass, the energy that binds the protons and neutrons together is known as the strong force, a tremendous amount of energy is stored there, it is billions times stronger than the energy of the electron.

According to the Fractal Foam Model of Universes, all matter consists of high-energy photons orbiting one another. Photons are s-waves in the ether; they exchange momentum with dark-energy p-waves, which move at the speed of the force of gravity, which is much faster than light. (Einstein thought gravity was instantaneous, which is equivalent to infinite speed of propagation.)
A neutrino, for example is a pair of s-waves, following a double helix path. The difference between the length of the helix path and the length of the straight axis of the the helix determines how much of the photon's energy is converted to mass.

Energy is not a substance that things can be "made of", but a property of matter. The energy content of matter in its rest frame is equal to its mass (also a property) times the speed of light squared.
Examples of substances: grass, water, protons.
Examples of properties: speed, color, volume

The neutron is matter. Also, atoms have weights, as do molecules.
