Peanut Butter Oat Balls are easy to make and convenient to carry. Plus, there's no need to bake! Each bite is a delicious and nutritious burst of energy. Let's head to the kitchen and prepare these delightful balls!
- 1 cup creamy natural peanut butter (unsweetened, 280 g)
- ½ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup coconut oil (melted, 55 g)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup collagen protein powder (unflavored, 45 g)
- ¼ cup ground flaxseed (20 g)
- 1 ½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats (150 g)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds (20 g)
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt (or to taste)
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips (85 g)
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth. Don't worry, it's very easy!
Add the collagen protein powder, ground flaxseed, and sea salt to the wet ingredients and whisk until no lumps remain. Now things are getting good!
Once the collagen mixture is well combined, add the oats and chia seeds and stir with a spatula. Are you ready? It's becoming a great mix!
Add the mini chocolate chips to the mixture. Ensure the chocolate chips and oats are evenly distributed.
If the dough is too soft, place the mixing bowl in the refrigerator and wait about 15 minutes for it to cool.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
Once the dough is sufficiently cooled, use a spoon or a 1-ounce cookie scoop to take the dough. Roll it between your hands to form a smooth ball. Place it on the lined baking sheet and repeat the process for the remaining dough. That's it!
You can enjoy these peanut butter energy balls immediately or place the entire tray in the refrigerator to let them firm up completely for 15-20 minutes. Enjoy!
