Serves: 24 balls
Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 1 cup of peanut butter, 1/2 cup of honey, 1 cup of rolled oats, 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, and 1/4 cup of ground flaxseed.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and honey. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to mix them together until well blended and smooth.
- Add the rolled oats to the peanut butter and honey mixture. Stir until the oats are evenly coated and incorporated into the mixture.
- Next, add the ground flaxseed to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to ensure that the flaxseed is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Finally, fold in the chocolate chips, mixing gently until they are evenly distributed in the mixture.
- Once the mixture is well combined, use your hands to form small balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter. Place the formed balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate.
- Continue forming balls until all the mixture is used up. You should end up with about 24 peanut butter balls.
- After all the balls are formed, place them in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to firm up. This will help them hold their shape better.
- Once chilled, the Milk and Honey Peanut Butter Balls are ready to serve. Enjoy them as a snack or a healthy treat!
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Tips
- Use room temperature ingredients for easier mixing and smoother texture.
- For extra firmness, chill the mixture for 10-15 minutes before rolling into balls.
- Wet your hands slightly when forming balls to prevent sticking.
- Experiment with add-ins like chopped nuts, coconut flakes, or drizzled dark chocolate.
- For a protein boost, consider using natural, unsweetened peanut butter.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and texture.
- These balls are perfect for meal prep - make a big batch and enjoy throughout the week!
