    A couple of weeks ago, I shared my recipe for Milo Weet-Bix Balls... they're SOOO good... but they're also the 'naughty' version of these Healthy Weet-Bix Balls. And so, I thought to keep things nice and balanced, I'd share this recipe too!

    These are just as simple as the cheeky version, but they're certainly a heck of a lot healthier! They're also the perfect lunch box snack... nut-free, freezer-friendly and super yummy.

    These Healthy Weet-Bix Balls are naturally sweetened by the medjool dates and the honey... YUM! I also like to add sultanas to my mixture as well, but you can totally leave them out if you're not a fan.

    Ingredients

    • 5 Weet-Bix

    • Place the Weet-Bix, medjool dates, honey, desiccated coconut and chia seeds into the Thermomix bowl. Mix on Speed 8, 10 seconds. 
    • Test the mixture and if it's too dry to easily roll into balls, add the water and mix again for 4-5 seconds, Speed 5.
    • When you have added enough water to be able to roll into firm balls, add the sultanas and stir through with the spatula. 
    • Roll the mixture into teaspoon-sized balls and place into an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week (see notes). 

    Notes

    These balls can be frozen for up to 3 months in an airtight container.

      Could you substitute the honey for rice malt syrup or maple syrup?

        Hi Kylie, yes you can! Rice malt syrup would be the better substitute as it's thicker/stickier than maple syrup. x

      Made these with gf Weet-Bix for my coeliac son. He's fussy and not a fan,but my 1 year old LOVES them. Will definitely be making it regularly in our house.
