Oatmeal bars are a great alternative to stave off your hunger without devouring a whole chocolate bar and then having to gaze upon the empty wrapper in self-disgust. And you don’t even have to buy them anymore because you can make your own “oatmeal bars” by yourself with just a few ingredients.
No-Bake Energy Balls
Ingredients
- 2 bananas
- 4.5 cups oatmeal
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 2.5 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 0.33 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Squish the bananas using a fork.
- Add all remaining ingredients to the bananas and mix them together thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Form little balls out of the mixture. You can use an ice cream scoop or a spoon to do this. You can also use your hands of course but be careful: it's really sticky! If you wet your hands lightly, then it's easier to form the balls.
- The oatmeal balls go into the refrigerator so that they can solidify. If you store them here, the little balls will stay good for a long time.
