Chocolate Peanut Butter Energy Bites
Recipe type: Healthy Snack
Prep time: 
Total time: 
Serves: 20 balls
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats (can use gluten-free oats)
  • ⅓ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • ½ cup ground flax seed
  • ⅓ cup honey or agave nectar
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
  1. Stir all ingredients together in a large bowl until thoroughly mixed. Chill in the refrigerator for at least half an hour, to make the mix easier to handle and mold.
  2. Once chilled, roll into balls of whatever size you would like (I rolled mine about the size of a golf ball). Store in an airtight container; keeps in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for up to a month.
Notes
*If the mix seems to dry, add in more honey or peanut butter. If the mix seems too wet, add in extra oatmeal.
