Guy: These are fantastic for you or your kids lunchbox, and make for the perfect healthy snack or that 3pm fix. When it comes to whipping up healthy snacks on the fly, I always need to keep it super simple.
These homemade high protein paleo snacks from Caroline do the job perfectly, and to top it off they taste pretty darn amazing too!
It’s one of those recipes that you can stick to the game plan or be as creative as you like:
Homemade chocolate walnut biscuits or balls
- 1 cup hazelnut meal
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1 tab raw cacao
- 1/2 cup 180 Natural Protein Superfood (coconut or chocolate)
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 4 egg whites
Mix all the dry ingredients together then whip the egg whites into hard peaks and fold through the dry ingredients. The mix goes a bit sticky so that’s the time to get your hands into the bowl and start making whatever shapes out of the mixture that you prefer. I made balls, biscuits and a muffin cup. So be inventive.
They take about 12min to cook in an oven that’s 180 degrees.
These are really delicious and nutty snacks. I love them straight out if the oven, or throw them into a lunch box because even the kids love the hazel nutty yumminess 🙂
Big thanks to Caroline Howe for the recipe.

Everybody is after healthy snacks for kids lunch boxes but organizations like yourself and even woo lies and Coles forget nuts are not allowed at schools . So many snacks are advertised for lunch boxes but they have nuts in them. Just had to finally say something.
Hi Lou, I have two boys and we are allowed nuts at our school, I think most New Zealand schools allow too. Trying to cater for everyone. Ange 🙂
