Quick and simple snack recipes like this one are what make my life easier. These require only a few simple ingredients that you most likely already have on hand.

Plus these Peanut Butter Oatmeal Balls don’t require any baking.

I like keeping a batch of these in the fridge at all times. They make the perfect guilt free snack, that fights off that sweet tooth.

Which to be honest, I’ve been having a lot more of lately. I can’t seem to get enough of these little guys.

All you need for these yummy little morsels are oats, avocado oil, maple syrup, peanut butter, chocolate chips and chia seeds. You can add protein powder, if you’d like.

That’s totally up to you!

Can I use something other than peanut butter?

Sure! You can use your favorite nut butter. I love using vanilla almond butter.

Do I have to add the chia seeds?

Nope. That is totally your call. I have also done ground flax seeds. Use what you have. These are good with chia and without. They only add a nutritional boost, not really flavor.

How can I change these up?

White chocolate chips, caramel chips, no chocolate chips, peanut butter chips…just about any “chips” will work.

Add chopped nuts, dried fruits, etc. Just know that adding any more dry ingredients may affect the outcome. You may need more wet ingredients. {I have not made these using chopped nuts or dried fruits.}

  • Making marshmallows at home isn’t hard, and you can control what the ingredients are. These VERY SIMPLE HOMEMADE MARSHMALLOWS are easy to make, and you can cut them into any shape you’d like! .
. https://www.everydaymadefresh.com/very-simple-homemade-marshmallows/ .
.
INGREDIENTS:
3 packages of unflavored gelatin
1 cup cold water I stash mine in the freezer for 5 minutes, divided
12 oz sugar by all means weigh this out
1 cup light agave nectar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. In a large mixing bowl combine 1/2 cup cold water with the gelatin. Set aside, ready to use.
In a large pot with deep sides, combine the other 1/2 cup of cold water, sugar, and agave nectar.

2. Heat on medium to high heat, covered for 4 minutes.

3. Uncover, and attach a candy thermometer. Cook until the mixture reaches 240 degrees.
As soon as it reaches temp, remove from heat.

4. Turn on your stand mixer (low) and slowly pour your mixture into the gelatin mix until you pour all of your sugar mix.

5. Turn the speed up to high and continue beating until the mixture becomes very thick and no longer hot, but warm to the touch.

6. While the mix is beating prepare a 13X9 inch baking dish - line the baking dish with wax paper, overlapping the sides.

7. Combine the powdered sugar and corn starch, sprinkle the wax paper with half the mixture, reserving the rest for the top of your marshmallows.

8. Once your marshmallow mixture is warm to the touch, pour in your vanilla flavoring and whip a minute more to combine.

9. Turn off your mixer and pour your marshmallow mix into your prepared dish.

10. Sprinkle 1/4 of the remaining cornstarch/powdered sugar mix on top, and set the rest aside for later use.

11. Place your marshmallows into the fridge for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best. .

As the butter starts to brown (a very light brown color), turn off the heat, and pour into a heat safe measuring cup to cool just a bit.

2. Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt, set aside.

3. In a large bowl, add the brown butter, and both sugars. Mix until combined.

4. Mix in the egg and vanilla until combined.

5. Add the dry ingredients and mix, until well combined.

6. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.

7. Remove from the fridge, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

  • A classic peanut butter cookie with all the extras. These MUDDY BUDDY COOKIES are filled with a creamy chocolate center and topped off with a dusting of powdered sugar. .
. https://www.everydaymadefresh.com/muddy-buddy-cookies/ .
.
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 stick butter, softened
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon canola oil
1/2 cup powdered sugar

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 375 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda together. Set aside.

3. In a large bowl attached to a stand mixer, beat the butter and peanut butter together until fully incorporated and creamy.

4. Pour in both sugars, and beat for 2 full minutes.

5. Add the vanilla extract and egg. Beat for 1 minute.

6. Add the dry ingredients to the wet, and beat to combine.

7. Shape the dough into one inch balls, and place two inches apart on prepared baking sheets.

8. Bake for 8, and remove from the oven. If your cookies are really puffy in the center, you can slightly press them down with a glass. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.

9. Remove to cooling racks and allow to cool completely.

10. Once the cookies are cool, combine the chocolate chips and canola oil in a microwave safe bowl. I do increments of 30 seconds. It's usually about 1 minute to fully melt the chocolate chips. Stir vigorously to help melt them all.

11. Drop about a teaspoon full into the center of the cookies. I use the back of the spoon to help spread it around, almost to the edges.

12. Allow those to cool for an additional 10 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar and enjoy! .
