Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Mix Peanut Butter and Honey: In a bowl, combine the peanut butter and honey and stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Add the rolled oats and chocolate chips to the peanut butter mixture. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Form Balls: Using your hands or a small scoop, roll the mixture into small, bite-sized balls.
  4. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and place the peanut butter balls evenly spaced on the sheet.
  5. Refrigerate: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill the peanut butter balls for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
  6. Serve: Once chilled and set, remove from the refrigerator and serve as a delicious, comforting snack or dessert.
  7. Store: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Use creamy or crunchy peanut butter based on personal preference.
  • For a healthier option, substitute chocolate chips with raisins or dried cranberries.
  • To make vegan, replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
  • Ensure the peanut butter balls are well chilled before serving for best texture.
