NO BAKE PEANUT BUTTER ENERGY BITES

As I get closer and closer to my trip to Mexico I have become more and more aware of the things I am putting my body. I’m not getting crazy with it or anything (ha like I could), but I want to be mindful that I’m putting good things in, so I feel my best.

I swapped out the flax for chia seeds (mostly because that’s what I had on hand), but also because Chia seeds are a great source of omega 3s (which is great for your skin and we can all use a little more TLC for our skin around this time of year).

Original recipe >> via Cooking Classy 

NO BAKE PEANUT BUTTER ENERGY BITES

Ingredients
  
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup old-fashioned oats (raw)
2/3 cup sweetened shredded coconut, toasted and cooled
1 TBS chia seeds 
6 Tbsp chocolate chips  
Directions
In
a mixing bowl, stir together peanut butter, honey and vanilla extract.  I find a fork or a whisk to work the best for combining these ingredients.
Add remaining ingredients and stir until evenly coated. 
Transfer mixture
to refrigerator or freezer to chill (about 15-20 mins).
Once the mixture has come together slightly shape your energy bites with damp hands. I used a tablespoon to scoop out the mixture and then my damp hands to shape the top and gently plop it out. Much like when I am making sushi I had a small bowl of cold water handy (bad pun).
Store in refrigerator in an airtight container.

Enjoy! Make sure to stay tuned next Tuesday for another great no-bake recipe 🙂 With my bonkers schedule the next two months I’m all about the low-key treats these days!
