Oaty granola bites bowl

Crunchy and nutritious, homemade granola bites made from oats is a delicious way to start your day. This easy-to-follow recipe combines rolled oats, peanut butter and banana with a touch of sweetness from the berries and cinnamon. The result is a flavorful and satisfying breakfast or snack that you can enjoy on its own or mixed with yogurt, fresh fruit, or milk.

Method:

  1. To a medium-sized bowl, add the oats, peanut butter, dash of cinnamon and mashed banana. Mix to combine well. 

  2. Next, drizzle the olive oil in a small-sized pan on medium heat. Dish the oat batter into small bliss balls using a tablespoon and place in the pan. 

  3. Pan fry for 3-4 minutes or until the batter is slightly brown. 

  4. Serve the oat granola with fresh berries and a dash of cinnamon to taste. 


Note:

  • Oats - If you are clinically required to be strictly gluten-free, please swap the oats for either quinoa flakes, amaranth or for gluten free weetabix. 

  • Peanut butter - If you are allergic or have an aversion to peanut butter, feel free to swap this for another seed or nut butter of choice. 

  • Vitasoy soy milk - Please ensure this is calcium-fortified and contains between 300-400 mg of calcium per serving. However, suppose you are allergic or prefer other plant-based milk. In that case, you can always use another alternative, given it is calcium-fortified.

Nutritional Summary:

At Radiquel, we believe strict fixation on numbers is a reductionist view of nutrition and can potentially harm our relationship with food. Food is also so much more than just units of calories and macronutrients; it’s a chance to nourish our minds, bodies, and souls with whole and soul foods. However, we acknowledge nutritional panels’ educational value for some individuals and have provided them solely for educational purposes. Please utilise this information with the utmost care.

This nutritional information is given solely for recreational intent and is not recommended to displace any medical advice, nor is it necessarily precise. We approximate the nutritional information per the listed ingredients. As food products can always vary in size, brand and shape, and nutritional quantities can also change based on the plants' growth circumstances, the quality of the soil, the fruits' maturity, and other factors, the nutrition information that is provided is an approximation. Since these values are highly individualised and rely on a variety of variables, such as age, gender, and the amount of daily physical activity, we do not offer the percentage of the recommended daily value. Please calculate the nutritional information you need using the exact ingredients you used or seek a dietitian or clinical nutritionist to assist you, if you need.
