  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup natural peanut butter

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons chia seeds

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Instructions

1.In a mixing bowl, stir the peanut butter and honey together until smooth and fully combined.

    2.Add the oats, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until everything is evenly distributed and the mixture holds together when you press a spoonful in your palm.

      3.If the mixture feels too soft to shape, refrigerate it for 15 to 20 minutes.

          5.Place the bites on a parchment-lined plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

            Notes

            For extra crunch, stir in a tablespoon of mini chocolate chips after the mixture cools slightly in the fridge.
