Have you indulged this holiday season? I know I have! Well today I have a healthier snack option for you with these Banana Chocolate Energy Bites. They only contain 4 simple ingredients and zero refined sugar! These are very kid friendly as well.
If you want a version without grains, you can try this recipe instead. If you love energy bite recipes, try my chocolate cherry energy bites as well. Those are my fave.
These healthy energy bites are vegan and gluten free. They would make a great pre or post workout snack. Or an after school snack for kids. Since this recipe is also nut free, it’s a great choice for school lunchboxes.
If didn’t want to add the chips that would be fine too. I can also see raisins going really well in these.
We filmed a short video for this recipe. You can view it below. For more recipes, you can subscribe to my You Tube Channel.
