Ingredients

  • ½ cup creamy natural peanut butter (just peanuts + salt)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • ¼ cup flaxseed meal
  • ¼ cup unsweetened finely shredded coconut (I use Bob’s Red Mill)
  • Mix-ins:
  • 2 tablespoons raisins
  • 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup M&M’s (or your favorite chocolate covered candies)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add peanut butter, honey and vanilla to a medium bowl, mix until well combined and smooth. Next add the dry ingredients to the bowl: oats, flaxseed meal and shredded coconut and mix together until combined. Fold in the raisins, mini chocolate chips and M&M’s until well combined. Use a medium cookie scoop or your hands to grab dough and roll into 10 balls then place in an airtight container.
  2. Store in the fridge for up to 1 week, or the freezer for up to 2 months. Enjoy!

Notes

  • To make vegan: use maple syrup or date syrup instead of honey and choose vegan chocolate candies or sub with vegan chocolate chips.
  • Feel free to use any nut butter you’d like in this recipe. I think they’re best with peanut butter but any other nut butter should work okay as long as it’s all natural with no additives.
