INGREDIENTS

1/2 Avocado
1 ripe medium banana
4 heaped tbsp crunchy peanut butter
2 tbsp dark cocoa powder
1 tbsp agave syrup or honey
1 tsp vanilla essence
125 g porridge oats

90 g milk chocolate raisins

With an avocado and banana base, these chocolate raisin bars are designed to be easy to make, cost efficient and don't require refrigeration. Athletes often require (or crave) high carbohydrate snacks for pre/post-exercise or between meals in preparation for training session or competition. These make the ideal alternative to high sugar cookies and snacks

 At a cost of 28p per serving, these bars make a great natural alternative to shop bought energy bars that often contain added sugar or maltodextrin. They will last around 1-2 weeks when individually wrapped. Try adding flax or chia seeds for extra health benefits. Balance the texture by adding extra honey.

See the step by step guide and pictures below. Makes 12 bars.
