Date & almond bites

What you need

• ·45g medjool dates
• ·22g almonds
• ·22g porridge oats
• ·12g mixed seeds
• ·15g peanut butter

Method

1. 1Dates stoned and blitzed with the almonds until the mixture starts clumping to the side of the processor.
2. 2Oats, seeds and peanut butter in, blitzed again just until it holds together when squeezed.
3. 3Rolled into four balls with wet hands — wet hands are the entire trick, dry ones just get covered.
4. 4Fridge for twenty minutes to firm up.

These quantities are one sitting, four balls. Triple it and they keep a fortnight in the fridge — two of them forty minutes before training is the most useful thing on the snack list.
