No Bake Energy Bites (or balls)
1 cup dry oatmeal (I used old fashioned oats)
1/2 cup coconut flakes (original recipe calls for unsweetened) 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (or any nut butter of your choice, I've used sun butter and it was delicious) 1/2 cup ground flax seed (I only use 1/4 cup cause too much makes it "grainy") 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips 1/3 cup honey 1 tsp vanilla extract Mix all ingredients in a medium bowl. Chill for a 1/2 hour in the fridge. Roll into balls (about 1inch) Store in an airtight container for up to a week. Some variations: add 1 tsp of ground chia seeds to the mix Add sprinkles (or jimmies) to jazz them up Add chopped walnuts (1/4 cup) to the mix for a crunch (this is how I like them) I serve them with a glass of milk and apple slices. *edited to add, since these contain honey I don't give them to any kiddo under 1 year. You can use agave if you prefer.

Do you think I could omit the coconut I have an allergy would it have any effect on end result?

I made two versions of these yesterday - for DH who teaches in a peanut free class, I made them peanut free (sunbutter instead of peanut butter)
And for me I made one with 1/4 cup peanut butter and 1/4 cup Nutella. So good!

They sound good and easy, something the kids would love to help make. Thanks for sharing!!
But don't you have a recipe called No Bake Sleepy Bites? Seems kids have way too much energy as it is.

So these were amazing. Now I have to figure out how to hide them from ME!
