Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4-5 dried apricots soaked in water
  • 2 tablespoons oatmeal
  • 50 g about 1/2 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
  • 100 g about 3/4 cup peanuts

Method
 

  1. Soak the apricots: Place the dried apricots in a bowl of warm water for at least 30 minutes to soften. Once soft, drain and chop them into small pieces.
  2. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the soaked apricots, oatmeal, chopped walnuts, and peanuts. Stir everything together until evenly combined.
  3. Shape the bites: Take a spoonful of the mixture and roll it into small, bite-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate.
  4. Chill: Refrigerate the bites for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
  5. Serve and store: Once chilled, serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes

  • For a nut-free version, replace the peanuts and walnuts with seeds like pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds.
  • If you prefer a sweeter bite, you can drizzle honey or maple syrup into the mixture before rolling into balls.
  • These energy bites can be frozen for up to 3 months, making them perfect for meal prepping.
