I love these Chai Spiced Energy Bites, they are just so delicious.

With no added sugar they make the perfect snack or after dinner treat.

I fiddled for some time adjusting the mix spices and this is my favourite blend. The pepper gives a flavourful kick, I prefer grinding it fresh.

On a hot day these energy bites might get a bit soft so I prefer keeping them in the fridge.
