Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup natural creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup pure raw honey
  • 1 Tbsp hemp seeds or chia seeds
  • 2/3 cup original Grape Nuts cereal or any whole grain cereal, crushed
  • 1/2 cup ground flaxseed* OR collagen/protein
  • 1/3 cup collagen peptides or protein powder* OR ground flaxseed
  • 1/3-1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a medium-large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
  • Place bowl in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill.
  • Remove from refrigerator and form into balls (about 1" in diameter, or desired size). I have found it easiest to spray my hands with non-stick cooking spray and use my hands to form the balls.
  • Store no bake energy bites in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5-7 days.

Notes

*Note: either use ground flaxseed OR collagen peptides/protein powder. If you choose to add both, you will need more peanut butter and/or honey to even out the texture. 
I use Further Food Collagen Peptides and love them, especially the vanilla! But the flavorless version is also great to have for a variety of recipes, and it dissolves easily. Use my code wellnessforthewin for a small discount on their products.
