Peanut Butter Balls Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine your rolled oats and any dry ingredients like protein powder or spices. This ensures an even distribution before adding wet ingredients.
- Add the Wet Ingredients: Stir in the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract until everything is thoroughly combined. The mixture should be sticky and easy to mold.
- Incorporate Chocolate Chips: If you’re using chocolate chips, fold them into the mixture gently. This adds a delightful surprise in every bite!
- Form the Balls: Using your hands, scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls about one inch in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill and Enjoy: Refrigerate the balls for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Once chilled, they are ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
- Use Natural Peanut Butter: Opt for natural peanut butter without added sugars or oils for a healthier treat.
- Chill Before Serving: Chilling the balls not only firms them up but also enhances the flavors.
- Keep Your Hands Wet: Dampen your hands slightly while rolling the balls to prevent the mixture from sticking.
- Experiment with Add-Ins: Feel free to try different nuts, seeds, or flavors to find your favorite combination.
- Store Properly: Keep them in an airtight container to maintain freshness and avoid moisture.
