Ingredients
2 ½ cups quick oats
1 cup creamy peanut butter (not all-natural)
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/2 cup mini m&m’s
Instructions
Add all ingredients into a mixing bowl. Use a wooden spoon or a handheld mixer to combine together. Using a hand mixer is the easiest way to combine the ingredients thoroughly.
Shape into balls, about 1″ in size, and place on a plate or Tupperware type container.
You can eat right away OR refrigerate for about 30 minutes to 1 hour before serving. I love these cold straight from the fridge.
Store energy balls in a covered container in the fridge.
Notes
• Avoid all-natural peanut butter as it is too oily and the balls won’t hold their shape.
• Use a small cookie scoop to ensure all energy balls are the same size.
• If the mixture is too sticky, chill the dough for 15 minutes before rolling.
