3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Balls: The Easiest Sweet Treat You’ll Ever Make

 




Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Mix the Base

In a medium bowl, stir together peanut butter and honey until smooth. Add oats and mix until fully combined. The mixture should be sticky but firm enough to roll.

2. Shape into Balls

Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, roll the mixture into bite-sized balls (about 1 tablespoon each).

3. Chill & Set

Place the balls on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

4. (Optional) Add a Fun Finish

Dip in melted chocolate, roll in coconut, or sprinkle with sea salt for an extra touch.


Serving & Storage

  • Keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

  • Freeze for up to 2 months—perfect for grab-and-go snacks.


Tips & Variations

  • Chocolate Lovers: Stir in mini chocolate chips before rolling.

  • Protein Boost: Add a scoop of protein powder for a post-workout snack.
