<

These tempting little bite-size snacks, inspired by Kelly's no bake energy bites, are a delightful combination of oats, seeds and fruit. They make a mid-morning or afternoon energy boost. If you don't have dried barberries, goji or cranberries are great substitutes.

1 med Ripe banana, mashed 60 g Smooth peanut butter 1 tbsp Maple syrup 1/2 tsp Vanilla powder 2 tbsp Chia seeds 130 g Quick cooking oats 25 g Dried barberries (or cranberries) 40 g White chocolate chips

1. In a large bowl, mash the banana with a fork. Mix in peanut butter, maple syrup and vanilla until smooth.
   
2. Stir in chia seeds and oats. Mix until well combined. Now add in dried barberries and white chocolate chips.
   
3. Divide the mixture into 25 g portions, then roll between lightly moistened hands to make about 14 balls. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
