Print Recipe

These no-bake peanut butter granola bites are a quick, easy, and delicious snack made with simple pantry ingredients. Ready in just 10 minutes, they are perfect for meal prep, busy mornings, or a healthy treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, ground flaxseed, salt, and mini chocolate chips. Stir to distribute evenly.
  2. Add the creamy peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract to the bowl.
  3. Mix everything together with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until a uniform, slightly sticky mixture forms. If too dry, add a teaspoon more honey or peanut butter; if too sticky, add a tablespoon more oats.
  4. For easier rolling, chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes (optional).
  5. Using your hands, scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll into a 1-inch ball. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate. Repeat with remaining mixture (makes about 18-20 bites).
  6. Refrigerate the bites for at least 30 minutes to firm up (or freeze for 15 minutes if in a rush).
  7. Enjoy chilled. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Notes

For best results, use a creamy, well-stirred peanut butter. If the mixture is too sticky to roll, lightly wet your hands. These bites get better after a day in the fridge as flavors meld. For a vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup. For a nut-free version, use sunflower seed butter.
