EAT WELL FOR LESS : ENERGY BITES
Step 1: Blitz together dates, ground almonds, cinnamon and just a dash of water in a food processor until they have a sticky consistency.
Step 2: Add jumbo porridge oats to the mixture and blitz again.
Step 3: Customise the mixture with the flavour of your choice.
Some customisation choices ...
Banana and vanilla
For this filling, you need to add banana chips and vanilla essence.
After adding these to the base, roll the mixture into twelve energy balls.
Then roll the energy bites in freeze-dried raspberries for the final touch!
Carrot and ginger
For this one, you’ll need to grate both one carrot and a knob of ginger.
Add to the mix and roll out again.
For the coating for the carrot and ginger energy balls, coat them in desiccated coconut.
Orange and cranberry
The orange and cranberry bites were Greg Wallace’s favourite!
Zest half the orange and then add the juice to the mix. Add the dried cranberries and that’s the mix done.
The final touch is coating the energy balls in crushed up pistachio nuts.
