S'mores Energy Bites
Description
The S'mores Energy Bites mix old-fashioned rolled oats with finely crushed graham crackers and chia seeds, providing a hearty base with a subtle crunch. A pinch of sea salt enhances the flavor. Peanut butter and honey bind the mixture together, adding a creamy texture and sweetness. Vanilla extract accentuates the flavors. Mini chocolate chips and mallow bits are folded in last to replicate the key components of s'mores.
These bites are shaped into small balls and chilled to firm up, creating a convenient snack with a balanced chewy and crunchy mouthfeel. The combination of peanut butter and honey ensures they hold together well without baking.
They can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, making them suitable for on-the-go snacking, lunchbox treats, or a quick energy boost after physical activity.
