Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 0.5 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 0.33 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup mini chocolate chips
- 0.33 cup shredded coconut (optional)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the old-fashioned rolled oats, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until well combined and the mixture is sticky.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips, shredded coconut (if using), and chia seeds (if using). Stir until the mix-ins are evenly distributed.
Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls. You should have approximately 12-15 oat treats, depending on the size.
Place the oat balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set.
Once chilled, transfer the oat treats to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
