Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients: Start by gathering all the ingredients: 1 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips, 1/4 cup ground flaxseed, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  2. Prepare Mixing Bowl: Choose a medium-sized mixing bowl where you can comfortably combine all the ingredients.
  3. Mix Peanut Butter: Add the 1/2 cup of peanut butter into the bowl. If thick, warm it slightly in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to soften for easier mixing.
  4. Add Honey: Pour in the 1/4 cup of honey into the peanut butter.
  5. Add Flaxseed: Incorporate the 1/4 cup of ground flaxseed into the mixture.
  6. Combine Wet Ingredients: Stir thoroughly ensuring peanut butter, honey, and flaxseed are well combined.
  7. Add Oats: Stir in the 1 cup of rolled oats, mixing until evenly incorporated, scraping bowl sides as needed.
  8. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips without melting them.
  9. Prepare Muffin Tin: Lightly grease a muffin tin or silicone mold with oil or line with paper liners to prevent sticking.
  10. Fill Cups: Scoop mixture into muffin cups, pressing down gently to form compact cups, distributing the mix evenly.
  11. Chill Cups: Place muffin tin in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes until firm.
  12. Remove and Serve: Once set, remove cups from tin, peel liners if used, and serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for later.

Notes

  • Warming peanut butter helps achieve a smoother mix but avoid overheating to prevent melting chocolate chips later.
  • If you prefer a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.
  • Store these cups in an airtight container refrigerated for up to one week.
  • You can customize with different mix-ins such as dried fruits or nuts.
  • Ensure the mixture is pressed firmly into the cups for the best shape retention.
