3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Oatmeal Balls

It is so easy to make. I used honey instead of maple syrup. Also, I used regular peanut butter because I didn't have any all-natural peanut butter on hand. Added dried cranberries at the end. My kids said the cranberries make the balls taste like PBJ.

These were great my family loved them

Tasty snack. Used honey i had in pantry already & added white chocolate chips 😋 Somewhat healthy.

Quick on the go breakfast. I added mini chocolate chips to mine.

Perfect as a hike snack!

Great breakfast or snack for kids, and improved even further dipped in melting chocolate! Sometimes I add a splash of milk if I need help when combining ingredients and trying to get the mixture to stick together.

Easy to make. I used almond butter. Simple ingredients you have around the house.. just remember.. peanut butter is dry.. have a beverage handy.

Yum

Very think, hard to eat more than one at a time, but very filling.

I used way more peanut butter than what 10 servings says, but the correct amount of oats

It sticks together better when you add more peanut butter

One of the best desserts ever

Easy recipe and added chia seed

these were very easy to make, and are fairly decent. i think I'm just not a fan of peanut butter enough to eat a ball of it like i thought i was. still a good snack

I doubled the recipe and it made 12 (about two bites each). Optional add ons: dates, coconut flakes, hemp seeds for extra protein, flax.

Used honey rather than maple syrup and it was very tasty. Easy to make, and a great snack.

It was so amazing and easy to make

For me, I add 1 more tbsp of maple syrup, cacao nips and use instant oat. Very easy and fun to make. Really help when craving for snack😋

Simple snack. Kid loved it

I’d swap the maple syrup for honey. Adding the chocolate chips was a good move too!

Add chocolate chips for some sweetness

Was a very quick and easy sweet bite that doesn't take alot of ingredients. Family loved them. Will make it again

Great stuff, added some Cacao for a chocolaty flavor

Has just enough sweetness. But a little on the dry side

I'd suggest putting the peanut butter mixture into the fridge for a few minutes to help make it less sticky. Other than that it was easy to make and I added some extra nuts for some crunch.

Kid approved :)

sabor delicioso a manteiga de amendoim e amor da minha namorada 🥰

Tasted great I made them last night and even put chocolate on some of them

Awesome healthy snack. I added cinnamon as mentioned in the variations section.

The whole family loves these things! They never last more than a day! Yummy, easy, and healthy! The perfect combination! Use it for breakfast, snack, or dessert.

Used a little more oats to firm up the balls. I saw that some people were saying they were too dry. Just add either a little more peanut butter or maple syrup Also added mini semi sweet chocolate chips a little sugar free maple syrup. After mixing I let it sit in a bowl for about 20 minutes to allow mixture to soak more into the oats. Overall a great recipe and easy to make.

Add some almond milk so it is a bit more moist. That way you can form it into balls easier without it crumbling

Yummy!

Super versatile, can add whatever you want to it to make it tasty, and super quick!

Had to add some almond milk

Added protein powder and chocolate chips!

This recipe was easy to make! The peanut butter balls kept falling apart in my hands, So I put water on my hands and seems to work!

I used honey in place of syrup, and replaced 1/6 cup of peanut butter with Nutella. It added extra sweetness and flavor. This was delicious. Popping it into the freezer for 20 minutes helped solidify them and reduce stickiness.

Me and my mother used to make something like these they are called no bake cookies. The recipe has been on the back of the hersey cocoa power box at least for 50 years, I am 63 and me and my mother have been making them since I was about 10 or 12 years old

It's good, i tried adding chocolate, and it's better. I will do it sometimes, thank you very much.

Excellent but for more together balls, add more peanut butter

Maybe add some cinnamon or hazelnut or maybe some almonds or try a little bit of each of these suggestions.

Really good and easy to make.

I add some cranberries

Added chia seeds, salt, vanilla, and clove powder. So many possibilities with these!

Perfect for kids and so quick and easy 😍

Super easy.

Super quick! Had to sub golden syrup for maple as I was out, and worked fine. Was worried the oats would taste 'raw' but was fine after they sat for 30 mins in fridge.

A very easy and healty snack for when you have cravings! I added one tablespoon of cocapowder to make it more chocolaty. Also switched the maple syrup to normal syrup.

I used crunchy peanuts. Great snack

Okay, so I put a slight twist on mine and used powdered sugar to help keep them from sticking together while stored. After rolling them into a ball, just roll them around in the sugar or sprinkle them with it! I may have added too much, BUT they just melttt in your mouth 🤤 I haven't made these since I was a kid, and they are just as good as I remember.

I added the tiniest bit of milk to make it a little easier to mix things together. Along with substituted Maple Syrup for Honey. May make another version but with Almond Butter.

very easy and fun to make, tastes yummy! however I'd suggest using those quick oats since raw onces are a bit hard to chew

These are awesome snacks to bring to work or school. They're also really good if you add a mashed banana and some extra oats!

peanut butter yummy yummy

Very easy to make for a nice filling healthy snack

I had some chocolate peanut butter so I used it instead of the regular and these were amazing. 10/10 will be making them again! Great snacks, and my nephews loved them, too.

Cocoa nibs add a fantastic texture also. This is definitely a go-to for a quick post workout snack.

I have two little ones and they liked these peanut butter balls, in moderation

Added bananas to the mix and it tasted great! Its a little more mushy from the bananas, but im trying to rid of them haha

I made them with almond butter, as that was what I had on hand, and they were yummy! These will make a great snack.

These are SO good! I am on a special diet and this is like candy to me.

Very easy and quick to make

Way too many oats for the amount of nut butter I used. Couldn't incorporate all of the oats and it wouldn't stick together.

I done half Protien powder and half oats and added a bit of water

I doubled the recipe and then spilt it in two. In one have I used chocolate chips and the other half I used dried cranberries. Yummy!!!! I had plenty of Canadian maple syrup on hand thanks to my daughter in law who’s French Canadian and makes sure I have a can or 2 at all times 🇨🇦🍁.

Quick and easy good little after workout protein snack for when your not feeling a full meal chewy and very filling

These three ingredient PB oatmeal balls are so yummy!! And super easy to make! I love how time friendly it is, since it’s such a quick recipe. Perfect for a little snack after work or school, or even to grab for on the go! Definitely will be making again.

Very great snacks for kids my kids love them I love them it makes me fall longer. very good snack

It tastes amazing, I used Honey as a substitute for Syrup as I didn't have syrup and it still tasted incredible😋🤤

First time somewhat dry, next time I add an other kind pinut spread.

They were delicious! I did honey because I don't love syrup. Not too sweet, just the right amount of crunchy. Definitely a good power up snack!

I've been holding onto this recipe for a long time and finally made it. I'm watching my calories so I adjusted these by using peanut butter powder instead of real peanut butter. They definitely will be better with real peanut butter, but at 1/3 of the calories each (~25 each bite instead of ~75), I'll keep them like this. I added about 1 tsp of cinnamon and next time I make them I'll probably sub the syrup with honey. As usual, I'd say these are on the border between good and just okay, but they work for satisfying a craving. I think I'll like them butter with the honey.

Good

Made using a no-stir PB so it did have palm oil and molasses in it (bc that's what I had on hand) and they came out great. Good flavor. Plan to make again with some modifications.

Delish

Role them in toasted sesame seeds, really good.

my grandmother always made these when i was a child. they taste just like i’m sitting at her kitchen table!❤️

Very creamy. Pretty basic. My dogs love them. My boyfriend wants me to make them with cinnamon. Or replace the maple with honey.

This was very good, it's a little hard to mix but after about minute it gets softer, I recommend it for lunches, very easy to make.

Add a few chocolate chips yummie

I added cranberries and it came out like a nice snack. Add whatever fruit you want or chocolate chips, nice diverse simple snack.

It was a little hard to roll so I put them in the fridge for a little while and it got way easier. They are so good and so versatile. You can add anything from cranberries, chocolate , sprinkles, to protein powder, chia seeds, honey in place of syrup to make it exactly how healthy or dessert-like that you want it to be. They are sooo fast and with a three month old, I was about to start, make, finish and eat some in just one nap period which is a major plus to me because with a baby, having time to eat as a mom and have it be healthy is a totally win for the day.

Easy, delicious... Tastes like a treat. Added a little coconut

So delicious. I use it for a filler or quick snack for my meals. I have very long days because of school, so these come in handy.

Yummy!!

I found them to be sort of dry and hard to roll. I did put the mixture in the fridge before I rolled them.

Easy, used instant oats. Chilled the mixture before making the balls.

- I suggest chilling them before you eat - These peanut butter balls are gluten free, diary free, vegan, and packed with protein. They make a great snack when you're at work and need a healthier option to help you get through the day.

Recomiendo dorar un poco la avena antes de mezclarla para que queden mas crocantes / lo haría de nuevo solo si estoy entrenando y comiendo sano (por la mantequilla de maní 🥜). Estuvo genial de todas formas!!!

really nice

I did 1cup of smooth peanutbutter and 1/4 of crunchy peanutbutter. I made 3 batches, 1 batch with chocolate chips, 1 white chocolate chips and 1 just plain. Easy to make, fast and cheap. Kids love them and they go great with a cup of coffee.

This is a healthier and cheaper substitute for peanut butter granola bars I buy regularly. Good snack for when my blood sugar is feeling low.

So yummy!!!! We used 2tbsp of local honey instead of syrup. Keep chilled in the fridge for fast snack. Also freeze some and put in kids lunch boxes, they love them!

Nice quick snack. Very tasty. Was questioning the idea of eating raw oatmeal but this works!

added unsweetened shredded coconut, chia seeds

Didn't have a ton of flavor, but easy snack to make and my kids liked it.

I add organic chia seeds, chocolate Morsels( they stay firmer than chocolate chips), and organic honey in place of maple syrup.

A really easy to make and delicious snack. I rolled mine in cocoa powder .

I used honey instead of the maple syrup, and add vegan chocolate chip to it. It was so good and sweet

Yummy! We love these for breakfast!

Added some chocolate chips

Followed the recipe. Everyone loved them.

Me and my 7 year old made it it was delicious😁. We tasted it, then made it our own with the addition of coconut, pecans & cinnamon. It was a learning oppurtunity to visit measurement in the kitchen.

They are easy to make, but very sweet I use them for a pick me up. They freeze well too

Super easy and quick yummy filling protein hit! Next time I'll roll in some dark chocolate chips!

Added some sesame seeds and cranberry. Very good!

Awesome

So easy to make, mine kids love making them. We put a little chocolate on top. Our go to snack

Added 1/2 Tbsp chia seeds and rolled the tops in chocolate sprinkles (though they are also good dipped in chocolate instead of the sprinkles). These make a great pre-workout or mid-afternoon snack and freeze very well for longer storage.

Put chocolate chips in it too. Very good very good

If you like peanut butter, you're going to love this. Im not a huge fan of peanuts, so I added extra maple syrup. I didn't make them into balls. I rolled it into a log with parchment paper and then rolled in foil to freeze for a few hours. When I'm ready, I just cut a wheel-like piece off and go.

I added chocolate chips into the mix and cinnamon mixed with sugar as a topping it also it makes it easier to mix when you mix the peanut butter and the maple syrup together and heat it up for 30 second in the microwave btw I doubled it so there's more then what it would make

These were really easy to make and are very filling. I used honey instead of maple syrup, and it worked well. It's a solid choice for quick breakfast meal prep

I split honey/maple syrup and added the mini chocolate chips

I added cinnamon to mine. I used a natural Creamy peanut butter (you can see the oil in jar). They were nice and moist. A week later I made a second batch and added chocolate chips. you can use a small ice cream scoop to form balls.

Added chocolate chips, mini chips would definitely work better

The super picky teen tried one...then shared with dog. Dog went to his waterbowl,, so I'm going with dry? Teen then went back foe more. I'm about 3 steps from a tic tac diet, so I'm hoping she doesn't burn herself out in these.

The teenager that lives in my house was skeptical about trying these. She took a bite and decided that she would finish it. Anyone who has read my reviews knows I test these recipes on the teenager that lives in my house. 😁👍👍 Added a dash of nutmeg and cinnamon. Excellent!!

So easy, and customizable! I used peanut butter but you could use Nutella, you could even use sunbutter! I added slivered almonds but it would also be good with chunky peanut butter! I also added flax seeds not sure I'll do that again I didn't like that isolated pieces. I did add my favorite vanilla protein powder, I use the brand n a k e d. I love it and it didn't really seem to alter the taste cuz it was still lots of peanut butter and maple syrup flavoring in this, And it just made it that much more protein packed! This makes for a guilt-free dessert or even breakfast on the go! Kids would love these!

Just a note since this is listed in helping the gut category; it IS NOT gut healthy to eat raw oats.

Worked out great! I substituted honey and followed the exact measurements for everything. I then added one scoop of my protein powder (50 grams). It was tough to initially get it all mixed but eventually I was able to use my hands and kneed it and then I pinched of pieces and rolled into balls. Perfect!

Delicious and rich. I added a tablespoon of honey to this recipe and used a small kitchen scoop.

It's way way way too much sweet l

Half dipped them in chocolate. Tastes great!

Super delicious, quick and easy to make, I used honey, then added cinnamon and a pinch of salt!

Healthy ad more peanut butter

I use honey instead of syrup. To make it much healthier (and just as good), giving you SO many health benefits, add a bit of chia seeds and ground flaxseed (antioxidants, natural energy, lower cholesterol, lose weight, heart healthy, etc., etc.), as well as shredded coconut. You really don't even realize the chia and flax are there. I use mini chocolate chips....better results than normal size. I can only eat a few at a time and definitely notice a difference in energy level, but without bothering my anxiety. I keep a jar on my desk.

Added a little vanilla. Great snack for protein & fiber.

Too late for pics 🤤. If you're watching your calories, don't bother making this. There's no way you're stopping at a serving (whatever that is). Oh, I added a 1/4 tsp of ginger powder and a pinch of black pepper powder - definitely kicked it up a notch. Kids loved it!

Super quick and easy! Love these for a grab and go snack.
