When you need a snack that actually satisfies, these peanut butter bites are my go to. They are packed with wholesome ingredients like oats, flax, and chia seeds which keep everyone in my house full and happy. Since they take only five minutes to toss together, I always keep a batch ready in the fridge.

Because they do not require any baking, they are a great recipe to get the kids involved in the kitchen. Just roll them up and you have a nutritious treat ready to grab whenever hunger strikes.

Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine the oats, peanut butter, honey, flaxseed, chia seeds, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Stir everything together until the mixture is well combined and reaches a sticky consistency.

  3. 3

    Fold in the mini chocolate chips or raisins.

  4. 4

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

  5. 5

    Roll the mixture into small, bite sized balls using your hands.

  6. 6

    Store the finished bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

💡 Tips

Store these in the fridge for up to one week or pop them in the freezer for up to three months. If the mixture feels too dry, add an extra teaspoon of peanut butter or honey to help them stick together better.
