Irresistible Nutty Banana Bites: The Perfect Healthy Snack

Deliciously Nutty Banana Bites

As we head into the warmer months, I find myself craving light, healthy snacks to enjoy throughout the day. Today, I’m excited to share a recipe for my Deliciously Nutty Banana Bites. These bite-sized treats are perfect for when you need a quick energy boost or a satisfying mid-afternoon snack.

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe bananas
• 30g natural almond butter
• 20g pumpkin seeds
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
• 10g chia seeds

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• fork
• knife
• small plate

Start by peeling the ripe bananas and cutting them into bite-sized chunks. In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth. Add in the almond butter, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon powder, and chia seeds. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Next, take small spoonfuls of the banana mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. Place the balls on a small plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.

After chilling, these Deliciously Nutty Banana Bites are ready to enjoy! The creamy texture of the banana and almond butter, combined with the crunch of the pumpkin seeds and chia seeds, make for a satisfying and nutritious snack.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 150g, yielding 10 servings. Each serving weighs approximately 15g. With the natural sweetness of the bananas and the protein-packed almond butter, these bites come in at around 50 calories per serving.

One clever tip to enhance the flavor of these bites is to sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top before serving. The salt adds a subtle contrast to the sweetness of the bananas and brings out the nuttiness of the almond butter.

I hope you give these Deliciously Nutty Banana Bites a try and feel free to get creative with your own favorite ingredients. Happy snacking!
