Carrot Oat Energy Bites Healthy Kids Snack

This recipe started for carrot oat energy bites started as a foray into healthy Christmas food ideas, but honestly, these balls don’t need to be kept for Christmas time, so whether you have popped over to my site to find the reindeer food or to find a lower sugar nut free ball, do not panic. You are in the right place for both.

When I was little we always left carrots out for the reindeer, and I am proudly continuing the tradition of chomping on carrots in the middle of the night to please my kids going! It was this tradition that was the launch pad for this healthy Christmas food idea, that and my never-ending quest to make the perfect bliss balls.


I am constantly on the hunt for great lower sugar recipe ideas for my kiddos. I see bliss balls and energy bites everywhere, but for me, although yummy, many of them are still packed with sugar in the form of dried fruits. Don’t get me wrong I am not saying they are all bad, I am just saying that sometimes they are really high sugar items masquerading as low sugar. When it comes to sugar our body pretty much sees it as all the same, you can find my common sense thoughts on sugar and kids in this article
