Choc orange snack bites

.

 

Moreish, healthy, easy and filling.

 

For 12 bites:

In a large bowl mix together 12 tbsp dry porridge oats, 1 tbsp dried cranberries, 1tbsp golden sultanas, 1 tbsp. cocoa powder, 2 tbsp mixed seeds, 1 tsp dried cinnamon, the zest and juice from one juicy orange, 2tsp Canadian maple syrup, 2 tbsp rapeseed oil. Smudge your finger over the spoon you used from adding the oil into the bowl then coat 2 egg cups thinly with the oil (plastic egg cups work best).

 

In a saucepan place 1 tbsp coconut oil, 75g Dark chocolate roughly broken using your fingers (I used 74% cocoa), 2 tbsp crunchy good quality peanut butter,2tbsp blossom runny honey and use a medium heat to slowly melt whilst stirring. Don’t overdo the heating process it just needs to be melted. Pour the mixture evenly into the oats’ bowl and stir until everything is combined and well coated.

(NB: A microwave can also be used to melt the mixture using 10 second blasts and stirring between microwaving).

 

Fill each egg cup 6 times with the mix pressing evenly well down then reverse the egg cup to release each formed snack bite by tapping on the bottom of the egg cup into a container/s with sealed lid/s. Fridge to firm the bites which can be stored there for a week.
