Peanut Butter Balls

Sharing is caring!

Looking for quick and easy no-bake peanut butter balls?  

These peanut balls are a perfect snack for kids and adults!  They are fast to make and made with simple ingredients.

 Everybody in my family loves eating these easy peanut butter balls. 

My twins were around 2 1/2 when they started eating them (I made them very small into bite-size balls and omitted the chocolate chips when I first introduced them).

This peanut butter ball recipe has good fat and carbs, so they are filling.

If you want an easy snack on the sweeter side or something for kids, then you should try these peanut butter balls! 

They are so good and remind me of cookie dough.

You can easily omit the chocolate chips in these to make them less sweet and they are still so good!

Ingredients for the Peanut Butter Balls:

• 1 1/2 cups uncooked oats (I used rolled oats but use what you have)
• 1/2 cup peanut butter (could sub almond or sunflower butter).  I try to use peanut butter that has peanuts listed as the only ingredient.  
• 1/3 cup honey (could sub pure maple syrup – no honey for under 1 year)
• 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips (could sub with raisins)
• 1 teaspoon Ground Flaxseeds (optional)

Instructions:

• Add all ingredients to a large bowl except the chocolate chips.
• Mix well with a large spoon then fold in chocolate chips.
• Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before rolling into balls – this makes them easier to roll. 
• Do smaller bite-size balls for younger kids, or smash flat.
• Store in refrigerator or you can freeze if you make a large batch and thaw before eating.

Make sure your child is chewing solids well before serving these.

Always supervise kids and toddlers when eating these and all recipes on Twin Mom Refreshed, and make them bite-size or smash flat for younger kids.

I hope you enjoy this recipe!
