Firstly lets talk a little about why I prefer making homemade snacks and treats, over store bought.

Homemade snacks can often be more beneficial for weight loss and a healthy lifestyle, compared to store-bought ones, mainly because you have control over the ingredients and portion sizes. Store-bought snacks can be high in added sugars, unhealthy fats, preservatives, and high-calorie additives that contribute to weight gain.

I love making snacks at home as I can:

Use whole, unprocessed ingredients.

Control the amount of sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats.

Customize portion sizes to prevent overeating.

Choose healthier cooking methods like baking or air frying instead of deep frying.

Always note, that weight loss ultimately depends on your overall calorie intake and nutritional balance. If homemade snacks are made with calorie-dense ingredients or are consumed in large amounts, they could still hinder weight loss or affect your healthy lifestyle habits. To maximize the benefits, opt for nutrient-dense, low-calorie options like fresh fruit, nuts in moderation, vegetable sticks with hummus, or yogurt-based snacks and choose healthy ingredients, as we do here, when baking and cooking.

Today I am going to teach you how to make healthy, tasty, energy bars at home. These are a delighful treat for the whole family and perfect when you need a pick me up or a pre workout boost!

Homemade energy bars offer several benefits, especially when compared to store-bought versions.
Here are some key advantages:

Nutritional Control: You can control the ingredients, ensuring they are healthy and free from additives, preservatives, and excess sugars. This allows you to focus on nutrient-dense ingredients like oats, nuts, seeds, and dried fruits.

Customizable: You can tailor the bars to your specific dietary needs or preferences, such as being gluten-free, vegan, or high-protein. You can also adjust the sweetness or flavor to your liking.

Cost-Effective: Making energy bars at home is often more economical than buying pre-packaged ones, especially when you buy ingredients in bulk.

Healthier Ingredients: Store-bought bars often contain unhealthy fats, artificial sweeteners, and processed ingredients. Homemade versions let you use natural, whole foods like honey, maple syrup, coconut oil, and nut **** er.

Sustained Energy: When made with ingredients like complex carbs (oats), healthy fats (nuts, seeds), and natural sugars, homemade energy bars provide long-lasting energy, making them a great snack for workouts, busy days, or hikes.

Portion Control: You can create the bars in the portion sizes that suit your needs, helping with calorie control if that's important to your health goals.

No Unwanted Allergens: Homemade bars allow you to avoid allergens like dairy, soy, gluten, or nuts, ensuring that they are safe for you or your family members.

Freshness: Homemade bars are fresher compared to store-bought ones, which may sit on shelves for months. This can improve both the taste and nutritional value.

So, taking all of the above into account, have a look at the video below and let me know how you customised your energy bars.
