Peanut & Jaggery Energy Bites

Ingredients

• Roasted peanuts, coarsely crushed1 cup
• Jaggery, grated1/3 cup
• Ghee1 tsp
• Sesame seeds1 tbsp, optional

Preparation

1. 1Melt the jaggery gently with the ghee on low heat until it forms a soft, sticky syrup — do not let it harden.
2. 2Remove from heat, mix in the crushed peanuts and sesame seeds quickly.
3. 3While still warm, shape the mixture into small bite-sized balls.
4. 4Let them cool and firm up before storing in an airtight container.

Why This Works in a Balanced Diet

A combination of quick-release energy from jaggery and some protein and healthy fat from the peanuts.

This kind of simple combination is a practical, real-food option for a quick energy source around physical activity, without needing an engineered sports bar.

A note on moderation: These are naturally sweetened and calorie-dense in small portions — one or two bites is a reasonable serving, not the whole batch at once.

Practical Substitutions

• Use dates instead of jaggery for a different natural sweetener.
• Add a spoon of chia seeds for extra fibre.
