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 and chocolate chip mixture. Stir well until the mixture is fully combined and sticky enough to hold together.
- Form the bites: Scoop the mixture into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion between your hands to form bite-sized balls.
- Store: Place the energy bites in an airtight container. Store them at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for a firmer texture. Enjoy within a week for best freshness.
Notes
- For a vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Use natural peanut butter with no added sugar or oil for a healthier option.
- You can substitute mini chocolate chips with dried fruit or nuts if preferred.
- If the mixture is too dry, add a little more peanut butter or honey to help it bind better.
- Keep refrigerated if you prefer your energy bites firmer or to extend shelf life beyond one week.
