Health No Bake Protein Bites-Gluten Free
A delicious and easy-to-make healthy snack for the whole family!
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Oats
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup hemp heart seeds optional
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup honey or pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, mix the dry ingredients together (oats, hemp seeds, chia seeds, cinnamon, mix-ins). You can also use a food processor if you have a hard time with thicker mixes.
- Using a wooden spoon, mix in the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla, and additional mix-ins. Mix until everything is incorporated. If the mixture seems too wet add in more oats. If the mixture seems too dry add in a little extra peanut butter or honey/syrup.
- Place in refrigerator and let chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Using either a small cookie scoop, spoon, or just eyeballing it, roll into 1-2 inch balls.
- Store in airtight container in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
Notes
Note: Keeping them stored in the refrigerator is best, however, they do just find at room temperature if your plan is to take them out and about with you.
Note: Feel free to add in multiple mix-ins. We find that the combination of chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and pumpkin purée are perfect additions!
Note: We typically make a double (or even triple) batch at a time.
