Banana Oat Walnut Energy Bites

Step by step

Method

1. 01

   Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 02

   In a medium bowl, thoroughly mash the very ripe banana until smooth. Stir in the honey and vanilla extract until well combined.

3. 03

   In a separate large bowl, combine the rolled oat, chopped walnut, ground cinnamon, salt, and baking powder.

4. 04

   Add the wet banana mixture to the dry oat mixture. Stir until everything is just combined and no dry spots remain.

5. 05

   Scoop rounded tablespoons of the mixture and roll them into small bite-sized balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each.

6. 06

   Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and set. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
