Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup peanut butter
- 0.25 cup honey
- 0.25 cup chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or cashews)
- 0.25 cup dried fruit (e.g., raisins, cranberries, or chopped apricots)
- 0.25 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped nuts, dried fruit, chocolate chips, chia seeds, and flaxseed meal (if using). Stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the peanut butter and honey. Microwave for 20-30 seconds until slightly warmed and easier to mix. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
Pour the peanut butter and honey mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Use a spoon or spatula to combine until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture and roll them into compact balls. If the mixture is too sticky, lightly wet your hands with water to help shape them.
Place the Trail Mix Balls on a plate or baking tray lined with parchment paper. Once all the mixture is used, chill the balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Store the Trail Mix Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage. Enjoy as a quick, nutritious snack anytime!
