I could not love this recipe more! These Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Energy Bites taste delicious and are a little healthier than regular cookies! Have fun and make them with your kids for a delicious snack! These are vegan, but
- 1 cup organic rolled oats
- 1/2 cup organic ground flaxseed meal
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup non-dairy chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter can substitute almond butter
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- Can also add in nuts cinnamon, raisins, etc
Instructions:
Add together all ingredients in a big bowl and mix. It will be very sticky – kids will love helping! Form into 1 inch (in diameter) balls using your hands.
Start making your balls by wetting your hands first.
Arrange the bites on parchment paper and freeze for one hour until set. Keep in the fridge for a week or so. They will be soft and easy to eat. And delicious!
If you are carb counting, it works out to 9.5 carbs per ball

These look like they would be so very good. I am always looking for easy snack recipes that also provide energy to get through the day/afternoon.
Wow! This is the perfect easy to do snack after my tennis match. Thanks for the recipe!
I love that these are vegan. This would be great for a post workout snack.
These sound like perfect energy bites with just the right amount of sweet. Perfect for throwing in my purse to get me through busy days.
These are so perfect for me. I am so much more of a nibbler and need healthy things to be available so I avoid the bad sweets.
Looking at the photos and reading your ingredient list made me hungry for these oatmeal chocolate chip energy bites! I have to make this tomorrow!
These look really delicious! Perfect snack for my kids!
What a delicious snack! It’s almost my daughter’s turn to take in an after school snack for her theater group, so I am printing this off. I bet the kids will love it!
Love that this is a no bake recipe! Thanks for the easy to follow instructions. I can make lots of these oatmeal and chocolate chip energy bites to take to work and share with my friends.
I love that these are vegan, too! I go for walks with my SIL, who is a vegan, a lot so I think I will make us some of these.
You had me at no bake! That just makes it sound much easier to do! And I always need energy, so I will be making these soon!
Thanks!
I love chocolate chip cookies and would love to make these protein energy bites, but I am not a fan of getting my hands messy so I may ask my nephew to help me with it. It would be a great treat for a birthday party and family get together.
These would be perfect for throwing into a ziploc bag for when I’m on the go. They sound like a great snack.
