Dark Chocolate and Peanut Butter Energy Bites

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups puffed rice

2 cups dried shredded coconut

8 tbsp peanut butter

125 ml (1/2 cup) pure maple syrup

4 tbsp chia seeds

1/2 tsp salt

3/4 tsp vanilla essence

88 g (1/2 cup) dark chocolate chips

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • In a food processor pulse the puffed rice and desiccated coconut until they are coarsely ground.
  • Next add the peanut butter, maple syrup, chia seeds, salt, vanilla essence, and dark chocolate chips. Pulse again until the chocolate chips are smaller and the ingredients are well mixed.
  • Using a tablespoon measure, scoop up the mixture and mold it into balls. If the mixture is a little bit too dry add another drizzle of maple syrup and mix again.
  • Freeze until solid, then store in the fridge or freezer. They will last in the fridge for up to 7 days.
