Description

Healthy little granola bar like bites perfect for snacking.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup natural peanut butter, I used Skippy super chunk
  • 2/3 cup honey
  • 2 cups old fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped dates
  • 1 1/2 cup sweetened flake coconut, chopped
  • 3/4 cup ground flax seed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Measure out the peanut butter and honey into a large glass bowl, and microwave for 30 seconds.
  2. Stir together until well combined.
  3. Add oats, dates, coconut, flax and salt and mix until well coated.
  4. Cover and chill for 1 hour, and then scoop into 1 inch balls onto a Silpat lined baking sheet. I packed the oat mixture into a small Pampered Chef scoop so that it was firmly pressed together, and then released it from the scoop and rolled it a little with my hands. It’s a little bit of a sticky job, but the chilling helps.
  5. Chill the balls for another hour, and then put them into a sealed container. I kept mine in the fridge so they would last longer, and we liked how they tasted cold. You can also freeze these for later use.
