No-Bake Energy Bites

These are delicious.
You should make them .
I made them today and they were pretty rocking.

No-Bake Energy Bites
1 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup peanut butter (or other nut butter)
1/3 cup honey
1 cup coconut flakes
1/2 cup ground flaxseed
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla
Mix everything above in a medium bowl until thoroughly incorporated. Let chill in the refrigerator for half an hour. Once chilled, roll into balls and enjoy! Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.


P.S.  I didn't have coconut flakes in my pantry so I subbed it for 1/2 cup raisins, 1/4 coconut oil and 1/4 cup Trader Joes Pumpkin Butter, it was delish!

They reminded me a lot of these...
brannonpeople...the blog: Granola Bars :)

The recipe is from this cute blog...
Smashed Peas and Carrots


Thanks Maggie for the yummy recipe!
My boys and I are enjoying them right now.

Picked up my cottage cheese finally to make the protein pancakes . . . tomorrow morning :) can't wait. I have 6 kids - and snacks are EXPENSIVE (we liked getting the z-bars from Costco - but I think we were going bankrupt over them . . . ) these are a SUPER idea - they all love PB! Thanks again! I've had in the back of my mind trying to do the granola bars you posted awhile back - those are still on the to-do list :)
