Very berry raw vegan energy bites

If you have a weakness for sweet, fatty treats between meals, then these raw vegan energy bites are just the ticket.

They're much healthier than most store bought snacks, they taste great, and they're free from refined sugar.

These raw vegan energy bites get their yummy berry flecks from Mixed Berry Porridge Sachets, which are made by Hamlyns of Scotland, who've been growing, milling and packaging Scottish porridge since 1888.

Here's how to make the raw vegan energy bites. Warning, they're moreish!

Ingredients

• 5 sachets of Hamlyns Scottish Porridge Mixed Berry
• 65 g (2.29 oz) walnuts finely chopped
• 2 1/2 tbsp coconut oil gently melted
• 2 1/2 tbsp maple syrup
• 2 1/2 tbsp flax meal
• 2 1/2 tbsp cherry juice or any other natural fruit juice

Instructions

1. Mix all the ingredients until well combined.
2. Tip into a food processor and pulse for about 30 seconds.
3. Take a tablespoon on the mix, roll it into a ball in your hands and place on a tray lined with greaseproof paper.
4. Repeat until you've used up all of the mix.
5. Chill for an hour, then eat as and when desired.
