Well I don't know what took me so long to discover the wonderful world of Pinterest...but I've been a busy little thing on my iPhone all summer collecting amazing recipes to try! This one is for quick little energy bites, kind of like a sticky granola bar really...super fast to make and super delicious too. I think you're going to love these ones mom - I'll try my best to save you at least one for your visit on Wednesday!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of oats
1/2 peanut butter (or another nut butter of your choice)
1/2 cup of flaxseed (ground or milled work)
1/2 cup of chocolate chips (or sliced almonds, or sunflower seeds, or raisins, or cranberries...you get the idea!)
1/3 cup of honey
1 tsp of vanilla extract
Just mix it all together with a fork and VOILA! Use your hands to roll the mixture into bite-sized balls. It made about 24 good-sized bites that I then put into individual mini cupcake liners for storage. These bites can be stored for up to a week in an airtight container in the fridge.
Enjoy!
xoxo
