Ingredients
Scale
Energy Bites
- 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, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add peanut butter and honey to the oat and chocolate chip mixture. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and form a sticky dough.
- Form Bites: Scoop the mixture using a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop. Roll each scoop between your palms to form smooth, compact balls.
- Store: Place the energy bites in an airtight container. They can be stored at room temperature or chilled in the refrigerator for firmness and freshness.
Notes
- If the mixture is too dry and crumbly, add 1 to 2 teaspoons of water to help bind the ingredients better.
- For special occasions or themed parties, shape the mixture into different forms instead of balls.
- To make this recipe vegan, substitute honey with maple syrup.
- Use quality mini chocolate chips or consider dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
