Freezer Brownie Larabar Bites

An easy and healthy snack, these Brownie Larabar Bites are out of this world delicious! Make a bunch and stick them in the freezer!

I love energy bites in all shapes and forms.

They’re so simple to put together, and make a ton. Plus, they fit nicely in Allison’s Yumbox for school and it’s one of the healthy things she actually eats. Win-win for me!

One of my favorite snacks is the Larabars, because they’re made with whole food ingredients and easy to take with me. They also created Larabar Bites, which are basically Larabars in ball form. One day I decided to create my own, and these guys are pretty darn close!

Are these Larabar Bites healthy?

They only have 4 ingredients: Peanuts, raisins, salt, and cocoa powder. All whole food ingredients, so I’d consider them good for you!

Each one has about 100 calories; so depending on your health goals, one or two should be plenty for a snack.

How do you store them?

Once you make them, either stick them in the fridge or freezer and eat cold. What I noticed with my homemade ones is once they get to room temperature, they get very oily due to the peanuts. If anyone finds a way around this, let me know! But I recommend eating them cold for that reason.

Can I use substitutions?

So technically, Larabars use dates instead of raisins; but I find raisins to be a cheaper alternative. You could use dates instead; and if you don’t like peanuts, you could use almonds.
