Sweet and Salty Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites
Health Highlights

Ingredients


1 1/2 cup Pretzels, hard, salted
1 1/2 cup Rolled oats, dry
1/2 cup Peanut butter, smooth
1/4 cup Maple syrup, pure
3 tbsp Coconut oil (or more peanut butter)
2 tbsp Chia seeds (or flax seeds)
1/2 tsp Vanilla extract, pure
1/4 cup Semisweet chocolate chips ((I use dark chocolate))

Instructions


  1. In a blender or food processor, pulse pretzels and oats 4-5 times (just enough to break them up. Not enough to turn them to flour). If you don't have a food processer/blender, you can still make them. Put the pretzels and oats in a large zip-top bag and crunch them up using a rolling pin or the bottom of a cup.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together peanut butter, syrup, coconut oil, chia seeds, and vanilla. Fold in pretzel/oat mixture, coconut, and chocolate chips. Stir until mixture is well combined. If mixture is a little dry, add a bit more syrup or coconut oil. If mixture feels a little too wet to handle, add a bit more coconut or crunched pretzels.
  3. Roll into 1" balls (I usually get around 20-25 balls). Place on a plate lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate until no longer tacky (about 10-15 minutes), then transfer to an airtight container or zip-top bag.
  4. Store in the refrigerator up to 1 week, or the freezer about 1 month.
