Healthy Banana Bread Bites – No Bake!

After I ate lunch the other day, I really wanted something sweet, and I was craving banana bread. However, I didn’t have a lot of time considering I was on my lunch break from work, so baking really wasn’t an option at that moment. So, I went through the cupboards and fridge and found some things to throw together that would satisfy my craving, but I wouldn’t have to bake anything.  Wa-la!  No bake banana bread bites.

Wow, these things are tasty!  I could seriously eat a whole batch in one sitting – but I refrained…kind of…I left three. 🙂  Okay, so let’s get to this recipe.

BANANA BREAD BITES

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups gluten free oat flour (you could also use 1 cup coconut flour instead if you have an issue with oats)
• 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 small pinch of stevia
• sprinkle of sea salt
• 1/3 cup mashed banana
• 1/3 cup almond butter
• 2 Tbsp. Raw Honey
• Optional add ins: 1/3 cup chocolate chips, 1/4 cup crushed walnuts
• 3-4 Tbsp. Almond Milk

Directions

1.) Add all the dry ingredients (flour, cinnamon, stevia, and sea salt) to a large mixing bowl.  Mix together well.  Add the mashed banana, and stir in until well combined.  If you are adding in the chocolate chips and/or walnuts, add them now.  Mix well, and set aside.

2.) Add the almond butter and honey to a small sauce pan.  Heat over low heat until melted together.  Add to the mixing bowl and stir to combine.  You will have a really crumbly mixture.

3.) Add 1 Tbsp. of Almond milk at a time to the mixture until the mixture is a consistency that allows you to roll it into small balls that stay together.  I used 3 Tbsp. all together.

4.) Use your hands to make small balls of the mixture.  Place in the refrigerator for 1/2 an hour.

That’s it!  You’re good to go!  Banana bread craving satisfied without having to put in the work of baking any banana bread!

You’re seriously going to LOVE these!  So delicious!  Enjoy!
