These tempting little bite-size snacks, inspired by Kelly's no bake energy bites, are a delightful combination of oats, seeds and fruit. They make a mid-morning or afternoon energy boost. If you don't have dried barberries, goji or cranberries are great substitutes.

1. In a large bowl, mash the banana with a fork. Mix in peanut butter, maple syrup and vanilla until smooth.
2. Stir in chia seeds and oats. Mix until well combined. Now add in dried barberries and white chocolate chips.
3. Divide the mixture into 25 g portions, then roll between lightly moistened hands to make about 14 balls. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

These chocolate hazelnut cookies are grain free, gluten free and refined sugar free. Easy to make and a great one to put all the excess holiday baking ingredients to good use.

Grain-free, Sugar-free Hazelnut Cookies

1. Place the chopped dark chocolate in a heat-proof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until chocolate is just melted, turn the heat off and stir in chocolate flavoured liquid stevia.
2. Combine the white stevia powder, spices, and finely ground hazelnuts. Set aside.
3. Beat the egg whites and salt until stiff. Gradually add in hazelnut mixture and fold to combine. Now add in melted chocolate and rum. Form into a ball and wrap in a plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
4. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out between two sheets of parchment paper to a thickness of 1-cm. Cut out the cookies with your favourite cookie cutters. Place the cookies on two parchment-lined baking sheets. Leave them on the kitchen counter to dry overnight.
5. Next day preheat the oven, with the fan on, to 180C/350F. Bake the cookies for about 7 minutes. Remove the cookies from the sheets and cool them on a wire rack.
6. Melt the chopped milk couverture in a double-boiler. Dip the cooled cookies halfway into the melted chocolate and place it on waxed paper. Garnish with sprinkles if using.
