No bake peanut butter and dark chocolate energy bites



What can I say about these beauties. Simply they are just fantastic. Super convenient to eat and to make and super nutritious for you as well :-)

As a matter of fact, before going to the gym this morning I just grabbed three of them, as I didn't have time to eat breakfast, rather convenient this little things :-)

You can have as many variations as you like. Adding dry fruit, more or less of any other ingredients or even chopped nuts etc would be just fine. These energy bites are really versatile. Just make sure you keep them in the fridge as they may soften way too much and disintegrate otherwise!

Anyhow, I hope you get to try these little bites. Not only they are convenient and nutritious but they are super easy to make.

Enjoy!!






Here you can see the before and after mixing all of the ingredients. It is just that simple!!


These little no bake energy bites don't have to be perfect and you can make them whatever size you prefer as well. Mine were about bite size but you can make them bigger if you wish, less rolling :-)


You can add what ever you like to these no bake energy bites. Dry fruit and chopped nuts will go great in them. You can come up with your own little creation. Making these with kids is lots of fun.
