Protein Energy Bites

So what do you call them...

Protein Balls

Oatmeal Balls

Energy Bites

...or something else?

The recipe I'm sharing below is one I've been enjoying for over 5 years.  However I know there are so many other versions out there as well.

Recipe

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1/3 cup honey

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup old-fashioned/quick oats (I use half cup each)

1/3 cup shredded coconut

1/2 cup flaxseed (some use ground)

1/2 cup chocolate chips (I use 1 hershey bar chopped)

 

Optional

walnuts (chopped)

craisins (chopped)

chia seeds

 

Mix all ingredients together.  Scoop onto cookie sheet (I use a cookie scoop).  Refrigerate.  Then put in container back into refrigerator.

 

 

TIP:  I've been using Bob's Red Mill oats since those are the easiest Gluten Free options to grab.  I put 1 c and the hershey bar in the food processor to chop it all up.

 

TIP:  I typically put in 2 tbsp of Chia Seeds.

 

 

 

{I had a picture to share but to technologically challenged to get it added} LOL!
