Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • ½ cup quick oats Can use gluten-free oats if needed.
  • ¼ cup peanut butter Can substitute with almond butter for nut-free version.
  • 2 tablespoons honey Can substitute with maple syrup for vegan option.
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips Can swap for dried fruit for a different texture.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Combine oats and chocolate chips in a medium bowl.
  2. Add peanut butter and honey; stir until well combined.
  3. Scoop the mixture into 12 balls and roll between your hands.
  4. Store in an airtight container at room temperature or chilled.

Notes

For an extra crunch, consider adding chia seeds or flaxseed. If the mixture feels too dry, a splash of milk can help. For variations, try different nut butters or add shredded coconut.
