Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ cup ground flaxseed
  • ½ cup peanut butter chips
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Mix all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Cover and place fridge for 15-30 minutes.
  • Roll into 10 bites and store in fridge for up to a week.

Notes

  • Use old-fashioned oats as they are heartier than quick cooking oats.
  • If you don’t want to use or have honey, replace it with maple syrup.
  • If mixture is dry, stir in water 1 tbsp at a time until you can easily form balls without them falling apart.
  • Place the energy balls in the fridge for at least 15 minutes so they can set up and stay firm.
