Frequently asked questions
How do I make no-bake peanut butter energy bites with oats?
Stir 120 g peanut butter, 100 g rolled oats, 50 g honey, 40 g dark chocolate chips and a pinch of salt in a bowl until evenly combined. Chill the mixture for 20 minutes, then roll it into walnut-sized balls. The recipe makes about 15 bites and takes around 15 minutes of active work.
Why do my energy bites feel dry, and how can I fix them?
If the mixture feels dry, add a little more peanut butter and stir again. The peanut butter is what binds the oats, honey and chocolate chips together. Resting the mixture in the fridge for 20 minutes also helps, because it firms up and becomes much easier to shape into balls.
How long do peanut butter energy bites keep in the fridge?
Peanut butter energy bites keep for up to a week when stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Because they are no-bake, you can prepare the whole batch of about 15 bites in advance and take one as a snack for work, school or after training.
Which peanut butter works best for energy bites, and why?
Scyavuru 100% Peanut Butter is used because it is made only from roasted peanuts, with no sugar, palm oil or salt, and has 27 g of protein per 100 g. It binds the oats and honey into a firm mixture and gives the bites a rich peanut flavour.
Can I add seeds or change the ingredients in energy bites?
Yes, you can add 2 tablespoons of chia or flax seeds, which are optional, to the mix of peanut butter, oats, honey and dark chocolate chips. Stir them in with the other ingredients before chilling. If the texture turns dry, add a little extra peanut butter to compensate.
How big should energy bites be, and how many does the recipe make?
Roll the chilled mixture into walnut-sized balls. The quantities of 120 g peanut butter, 100 g rolled oats, 50 g honey and 40 g chocolate chips yield about 15 bites, a practical size for a quick snack at work, at school or after training.
