Equipment

Ingredients

1 cup gluten free oats
6 T peanut butter you can sub sunbutter if needed
¼ cup OWYN vanilla protein powder or your favorite vanilla protein powder
¼ cup unsweetened almond milk or other milk of choice
2 T mini chocolate chips optional

Instructions

Combine all ingredients except chocolate chips in a food processor (I use a mini food processor) and pulse until combined.
The consistency should be like a thick cookie dough, easy to form into balls but not very sticky. Add extra milk a teaspoon at a time if the mixture is too dry.
Store energy bites in the fridge. They also freeze well! Makes 12 energy bites.

Notes

If you are need to avoid gluten for dietary reasons (especially if you have celiac disease or a wheat allergy), consider purchasing purity protocol oats. Some oats that are labeled 'gluten free' may still contain harmful amounts of gluten due to cross contamination. You can find a list of purity protocol oats HERE
