Ingredients
Oats 1 cup or 156g
Semisweet chocolate chips ½ cup chips (6 oz package) or 84g
Honey ⅓ cup or 113g
Flaxseed 4 tbsp, ground or 28g
Directions
- 1 cup rolled oats 1/2 cup almond butter (or substitute peanut butter) 1/2 cup chocolate chips 1/3 cup raw honey 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
- Directions: In a large bowl, mix all ingredients together. Roll out teaspoon sized balls and place on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Freeze until set about one hour. Enjoy and keep leftovers in a Ziploc bag in fridge or freezer. Makes about 20-24 energy bites. Personalize this recipe with add-ins such as raisins, dried cranberries, pumpkin, and dried cherries. I’ve also used ground bran cereal like Fiber One instead of flaxseed. These bites make a great afternoon snack and are also handy to take along when traveling.
