Perfect for weekend meal preps.
If you have been a reader of our blog for awhile now you most likely are aware that we love a good weekend meal prep. While it doesn’t happen every weekend, we both do our best to make it a priority. Because meal prepping is a big part of what we share on this blog, we create recipes with that in mind. Recipes that are made with few ingredients, are simple, approachable and of course, delicious.
These 3-ingredient Peanut Butter Energy Bites take just 10 minutes of your time to make, are tasty and perfect for meal prepping.
Give ’em a boost of protein if you wish
For a boost of protein, you can replace 1/4 cup of the oats for 1/4 cup of protein powder. I like to use Primal Kitchen Unflavored Collagen Peptides. This protein powder won’t change the flavor of the 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Bites and it’s a great way to sneak in a boost of protein.
Double the batch because these bites are freezer-friendly!
Thus recipes is simple to make, made with less than 10 real food ingredients, is meal ‘prep-able’, freezer-friendly and takes just a few minutes of your time. Awesome, right?! These are my favorite kind of recipes because they allow you to eat healthy, nourishing foods while spending less time in the kitchen so you’re left with more time to do the things you love.
Make them nut-free with one simple substitution.
We do our best to create recipes for ALL to enjoy! So if you have a nut-allergy, whether it be peanuts or tree nuts, you can simply substitute sunflower seed butter for the peanut butter in this recipe. It will give the bites a little bit different of a taste, but they’ll still be delicious nonetheless.
