Looking for a simple and scrumptious snack? 🥜 These Peanut Butter Bites are not just delicious, but they’re like tiny energy bombs that’ll keep you going. Perfect for those moments when you need a quick pick-me-up, and way better than reaching for that candy bar. Once you make these, you might find it hard to stop! 😅
IngredientsMakes 10-12 bites
- 1 cup unsalted peanut butter (about 8.5 oz / 240 g)
- ½ cup rolled oats (about 1.6 oz / 45 g)
- ¼ cup chia seeds or ground flaxseed (about 1.4 oz / 40 g)
- ¼ cup dark chocolate, you can use chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (about 1.4 oz / 40 g)
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup (optional)
- Pinch of salt
Directions:

1
In a medium bowl, mix peanut butter and maple syrup until combined.

2
Add the rolled oats, chia seeds or ground flaxseed, chocolate and salt then mix until everything is evenly incorporated. (see notes)

3
Using clean hands, roll the mixture into small 1 inch balls. Place them on a plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes:
- If the mixture feels too sticky, then you can add a bit more oats, chia seeds or flaxseed until you get the consistency you like.
- Feel free to omit the maple syrup to reduce sugar content.
- Store any extra bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Bon appétit and enjoy! 🥰☀️

It was to sticky even after I added more flaxseed
Does it matter if you use quick oats or old-fashioned oats in this recipe?
