Peanut Butter Bites (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1/4 cup honey or substitute with date or coconut syrup.
02 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
03 -
1 tablespoon mini vegan chocolate chips, if you'd like.
04 -
1/3 cup flaxseed meal.
05 -
1/2 cup gluten-free oats (if needed).
06 -
1/3 cup any type of protein powder.
07 -
1 tablespoon chia seeds.
08 -
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
09 -
1/2 cup smooth, drippy peanut butter (or almond butter as an alternative).
10 -
1/4 cup optional unsweetened coconut flakes.
# Instructions:
01 -
Put the oats, flaxseed, protein powder, drippy peanut butter, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and chia seeds into the food processor bowl. Blend everything until it looks mixed. Toss in mini chocolate chips (and coconut if you like) and pulse a bit more. Scoop dough out with your hands or a medium scoop, roll up into 10 round bites, then store in a sealed container.
02 -
In a mixing bowl, combine all the wet ingredients. Add the dry ones afterward and mix until the dough forms. Using your hands to get it all well combined usually works best. Once ready, roll the dough into balls that stay together easily.
03 -
Keep them in the fridge for up to 7 days or stash them in the freezer for as long as 2 months.
# Notes:
01 -
Skip protein powder if you'd like, just mix in extra oats to fix wetness.
02 -
Use sunflower seed butter to make it nut-free.

Turn them into bars if you’re feeling creative!
