Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup honey or pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed or chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine oats, ground flaxseed, and sea salt
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth
  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until a thick dough forms
  4. Fold in mini chocolate chips if using
  5. Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to portion dough, then roll firmly into balls
  6. Chill for 15-20 minutes if mixture is too sticky to handle

Notes

For best results, use natural runny peanut butter. If dough is too sticky, chill before rolling. These freeze well for up to 3 months. For vegan version, use maple syrup instead of honey.
