Ingredients
- ½ cup quick oats
- ¼ cup peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- ¼ cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix together the quick oats and mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add the peanut butter and honey to the oat mixture and stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined into a sticky dough.
- Shape into Balls: Using a spoon or small scoop, portion the mixture into 12 equal parts. Roll each portion between your hands to create smooth, bite-sized balls.
- Store Properly: Place the energy bites in an airtight container. They can be kept at room temperature or chilled in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
Notes
- If the mixture is too dry and crumbly, add 1-2 teaspoons of water to help bind the ingredients together better.
- For festive occasions, shape the mixture into themed forms instead of balls to add a fun twist.
- Replace honey with maple syrup to make the recipe vegan-friendly.
