A delicious and energy-packed snack that captures the classic flavors of banana bread. To create these delightful bites, start with the natural sweetness of one overripe banana, mashed to perfection. Add creaminess and nuttiness with half a cup of peanut butter.
In the dry ingredients mix, combine half a cup each of vanilla protein powder and coconut flour. These ingredients bring a protein boost and a soft, dough-like texture to the bites. Add half a cup of oats for heartiness and a bit of texture.
Enhance the sweetness with a teaspoon of vanilla extract, and pour in a quarter cup of your choice of milk—I used unsweetened coconut milk for a tropical twist.
Mix everything together until well combined, then roll the dough into bite-sized balls.
The result? Banana Bread Energy Bites that are not only quick and easy to make but also a delicious and energy-packed snack. Enjoy the delightful banana bread flavor in every bite!
