Peanut butter and jam bites

For a sweet and salty treat packed with energy, try out our peanut butter and jam bites

PBJ bites

In these peanut butter and jelly bites we have savoury oats and peanut butter married with sweet maple syrup and raspberry jam.

This is an effective, sustaining, carbohydrate-rich snack you’ll definitely look forward to.

Plus, they’re perfect for on-the-bike fuelling as they’ll help prevent gradual glycogen depletion and the dreaded bonk on long endurance rides.

Fill to your fancy with these three additional sweet fillling ideas:

Choc fruit ‘n nut – Swap the jam for 2 raisins, 1 hazelnut and some broken-up dark chocolate. Continue as per the instructions.

Citrus burst – Spoon lemon curd into the holes instead of jam and continue as per the instructions.

Apple pie – Spoon apple purée into the holes instead of jam, sprinkle with a little ground cinnamon, and continue as per the instructions.
