These tasty treats are part of our month-long celebration of everything chia. Courtesy of Natalie Herr from Oven Love, we adore these simple and easy decadent little cookies and cannot get over how down-right healthy they are to-boot. We know they have a good dose of peanut butter and chocolate chips (two of our favorite things!), but the whole grain goodness of rolled oats and the boost of fiber and Omega-3 from the chia seeds make these more like an energy snack than a cookie.
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Chia Bites
Ingredients:
- 4 cups Rolled Oats
- 1 cup Honey
- 1 cup Peanut Butter
- 1 cup Chocolate Chips
- 1/4 cup Bob’s Red Mill Chia Seeds
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. Let chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or more. Remove them from the fridge, use a small cookie scoop to create uniform portions and roll into balls. Store in an airtight container in the fridge. Makes about 4 dozen bites.
At Oven Love, you’ll find recipes made from scratch, with love and a little sass. I enjoy creating food that makes people smile, whether it’s a hearty main dish or the occasional sweet treat. Come by for a visit and see what’s cooking!
