My daughters, Cece and Lulu, made up this recipe. They make a batch weekly on Sunday, and we store them in the freezer. I find that getting kids involved in cooking leads to a more adventurous, healthy eater. These Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Energy Bites make for a healthy, protein-packed snack or dessert in their lunchbox. If your child has a peanut allergy or your child’s classroom is peanut-free, you can use sunflower seed butter in place of peanut butter.

Ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup ground flaxseed
• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 1/4 cup honey

Instructions

1. Combine all ingredients together in a bowl and mix well.
2. Form into 1 inch balls.
3. Store in fridge or freezer.

Enjoy!
