Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
- 2 tbsp ground flaxseed or chia seeds
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl.
- Stir until a thick, sticky dough forms. Adjust consistency with more oats or nut butter if needed.
- Roll into 1-inch balls using a spoon or small scoop.
- Place on a parchment-lined tray and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up.
- Transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
- Use sunflower seed butter or tahini for a nut-free version.
- Pulse oats in a food processor for a smoother texture.
- Add-ins like shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or dried fruit work well.
- Add protein powder for an extra boost—reduce oats slightly to maintain texture.
- Wet hands slightly when rolling to prevent sticking.
