Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks or chips
- Sea salt, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the oat flour, natural peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir the mixture thoroughly until a thick, cohesive dough forms with no dry flour remaining.
- Add Chocolate: Fold the dark chocolate chunks or chips gently into the dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture without melting.
- Shape Dough: Shape the mixture into a log shape or press it evenly into a parchment-lined dish, smoothing the surface to compact the dough.
- Freeze: Place the shaped dough in the freezer for 30 to 45 minutes, allowing it to firm up and become easy to slice.
- Slice and Serve: Remove from the freezer and slice into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle the bites lightly with sea salt for added flavor. Store the bites in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for longer storage.
Notes
- For a crunchier texture, substitute some of the oat flour with rolled oats.
- Use natural peanut butter without added sugar or oils for a healthier option.
- Dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa is recommended for the best flavor balance.
- Store bites in an airtight container to preserve freshness.
- These bites are perfect as a pre- or post-workout snack.
