Instructions:
-
Prepare the Biscuit Mixture: Begin by placing the Marie biscuit powder into a mixing bowl. Add the melted peanut butter, honey, coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix everything together well, ensuring that all the ingredients are fully combined into a sticky dough.
-
Form the Energy Bites: Take small portions of the biscuit and peanut butter mixture and roll them between your palms to form bite-sized balls. These energy bites should be small enough to pop in your mouth for a quick snack but large enough to satisfy your cravings.
-
Coat with Sesame Seeds: On a plate, spread the dry-roasted sesame seeds. Gently roll each ball in the sesame seeds to coat them evenly, giving the bites a delicious, crunchy outer layer.
-
Chill the Energy Bites: Once the balls are coated, place them in the freezer and let them chill for about an hour. This will help the energy bites firm up and hold their shape.
-
Serve and Enjoy: After an hour, take the energy bites out of the freezer. Serve them immediately as a healthy, wholesome snack. They are great on their own, but you can also pair them with a cup of chai for an afternoon tea party or serve them alongside a refreshing Cocoa Banana Almond Date Smoothie as an after-school snack for kids.
Tips for Making the Perfect No Bake Marie Biscuit Energy Bites:
-
Customize Your Flavors: Feel free to experiment with additional flavorings like cinnamon, cocoa powder, or even chocolate chips to make the energy bites more exciting.
-
Make Them Your Own: If youโre not a fan of sesame seeds, you can substitute them with other seeds like chia, flax, or sunflower seeds for a different texture and taste.
-
Storage: These energy bites can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks, making them a convenient and healthy snack to have on hand.
