Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted roasted peanuts
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.333 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
- 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a food processor, pulse the unsalted roasted peanuts a few times until coarsely chopped. Avoid over-processing to prevent the formation of peanut butter.
Transfer the chopped peanuts to a mixing bowl and stir in the rolled oats, chia seeds (if using), and dark chocolate chips (if using).
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the honey mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing thoroughly with a spoon or your hands until the mixture sticks together.
Using clean hands, take about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
Place the Peanut Honey Balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 20 minutes to set.
Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
