When you need a quick energy boost, these little bites are exactly what you are looking for. They have a wonderful chewy texture and satisfy those sweet cravings without all the fuss of turning on the oven.

I love keeping a batch of these in my fridge for busy days when the kids are hungry. They are packed with wholesome ingredients that keep everyone full and happy until the next meal.

🧺 Ingredients

  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

👩‍🍳Instructions

  1. 1

    Add the oats, peanut butter, honey, flaxseed, chia seeds, vanilla, and chocolate chips to a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Stir everything together until the mixture is well combined.

  3. 3

    Place the bowl in the refrigerator for about thirty minutes to let the mixture firm up, which makes it much easier to roll.

  4. 4

    Once chilled, scoop out small portions and roll them into balls with your hands.

  5. 5

    Enjoy them right away or store them in a container for later.

💡 Tips

Store these in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. If you want to keep them longer, you can freeze them for up to three months. They taste great even when cold straight from the fridge.
