7-ingredient, 15-minute energy bites made with wholesome ingredients and infused with the flavors of peanut butter and jelly! An easy, healthy snack!
Ingredients
1/2 cup
Peanut butter, natural
(creamy salted; (or almond; cashew; or sunbutter))
1/4 cup
Maple syrup
((or sub finely chopped dates)))
1/2 scoop
Protein powder, sprouted, Iron Vegan
(2 tbsp, (optional - can use any brand))
1 1/4 cup
Rolled oats- Gluten Free
2 1/2 tbsp
Flaxseed meal (ground)
2 tbsp
Chia seeds
1/4 cup
Freeze dried strawberries
(can use any dried fruit like cranberries, blueberries, cherries, etc)
Instructions
To a large mixing bowl, add peanut butter, maple syrup, protein powder, rolled oats, flaxseed meal, chia seeds, and dried fruit of choice. Mix until well combined. If too dry/crumbly, add more peanut butter or maple syrup. If too sticky or wet, add a little bit more oats or flaxseed meal.
Chill in the refrigerator for 5 minutes. Then scoop out 1 1/2 Tbsp amounts (I like using this scoop) and roll into balls. The "dough" should yield about 13-14 balls (amount as the original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size).
Enjoy immediately and store well-sealed leftovers in the refrigerator for 1 week or in the freezer up to 1 month (or more).
