Peanut Butter Booster Bites

When you just need “a little something sweet” why not make a healthier choice at the same time? These small bites provide a protein and fiber boost, as well as healthy fat and magnesium. Swapping out most of the peanut butter for peanut butter powder makes this a good lower-calorie snack option too.

Makes 16 servings (1 ball per serving)

Ingredients:

1 cup rolled oats (I used Bob’s Red Mill gluten free)

2 TB chia seeds

2 TB ground flax meal

2 TB pepitas (roasted pumpkin seeds)

2 TB peanut butter

4 TB peanut butter powder

2 TB pure maple syrup

2-3 TB water

2 TB mini chocolate chips

Mix all ingredients except chocolate chips in a medium sized bowl until well incorporated. Add chocolate chips and mix evenly. Using a melon ball scooper (or your hands), scoop balls onto a small tray or cookie sheet lined with wax paper or parchment. Place in freezer or refrigerator for 30-60 minutes until somewhat firm. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator for 3-5 days.
