Calories: 90kcal
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas mashed
- 2 cups rolled oats
- ¼ cup Cairo Apiaries Raw Honey
- ¼ cup nut butter (e.g., almond butter, peanut butter)
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by mashing the ripe bananas in a mixing bowl. Ensure that the bananas are thoroughly mashed, as this will act as the binding agent for the energy bites.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the Cairo Apiaries Raw Honey, nut butter, and, if you like, the optional vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir well to combine all the wet ingredients.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Add the rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to the wet mixture. This will provide the texture, flavor, and nutritional variety to your energy bites.
- Mix Thoroughly: Stir the ingredients together until you have a cohesive mixture. Ensure that all the oats are evenly coated.
- Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes. This helps the mixture firm up and makes it easier to form into energy bites.
- Shape Energy Bites: After chilling, remove the mixture from the refrigerator. With clean hands, scoop out small portions and roll them into bite-sized balls. You should get approximately 12 energy bites.
- Store or Enjoy: You can either enjoy your energy bites immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for later consumption.
- Workout Fuel: Grab a couple of these Honey Banana Oat Energy Bites before your workout for a quick and natural energy boost. They're also great as a post-workout snack or anytime you need a healthy pick-me-up.
Note: You can customize these energy bites by adding other ingredients such as chia seeds, protein powder, or coconut flakes to suit your taste and nutritional preferences. Make sure to adjust the honey and nut butter quantities to achieve your desired level of sweetness and binding.
These Honey Banana Oat Energy Bites are not only a delicious treat but also a convenient source of energy for active individuals. Enjoy your workout with a burst of natural sweetness and nourishment!
