Easy No-Bake Oatmeal Peanut Butter Energy Snack Bites

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups oatmeal

1 packet flavored instant oatmeal

1/2 cup peanut butter

1/3 cup maple syrup or honey

1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Optional add-ins:

1/4 cup chopped almonds, pecans or peanuts

1/8 cup sunflower seeds

1/4 cup dried cranberries, cherries, or raisins

Make This Recipe:

1. In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the peanut butter for 30 seconds so it is easy to mix.

2. In a large bowl mix all the remaining ingredients including the melted peanut butter together.

3. Scoop out a heaping tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. (To keep the mixture from sticking to your hands, lightly wet you hands with water). Repeat with the remaining mixture making about 16-20 energy balls depending on size.

4. Place the energy balls onto a parchment lined baking sheet and put them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Store the peanut butter snack bites in a sealed tupperware container in the fridge. Trust me though, they won't last long!
