    Homemade energy bar is a great snack. Sometime back they were all over Pinterest  Instagram YouTube Facebook ideas. The world did notice the fad but little did they realize commercial ones still have lots of unwanted ingredients. Alternatively, making them at home, helps you keep them organic and sugar free. This is a simple treat to make and resembles chikki in some sense.

    This is a cheaper alternative to the various bars available in market. Also, it has no additional sugar or preservatives. You can prepare this easily on a weekend and store it on room temperature in individual packs. Eat a small bite when you like to pep up your energy.
