Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate

Instructions

  1. Prepare the mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, creamy peanut butter, and honey. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well blended into a sticky, cohesive mixture.
  2. Shape and press into cups: Using a spoon or your hands, press the mixture firmly into paper liners or silicone muffin cups, shaping them into cup-like forms to hold the chocolate topping later.
  3. Add chocolate topping: Sprinkle chocolate chips or chopped chocolate evenly over the pressed oat and peanut butter cups, pressing them gently into the surface for adhesion.
  4. Chill to firm up: Place the cups in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until they are firm and set. This helps the cups hold their shape and the chocolate to solidify.
  5. Serve: Remove from fridge and enjoy these no-bake peanut butter oat cups as a tasty and nutritious snack.

Notes

  • For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
  • If you prefer a crunchy texture, toast the oats lightly before mixing.
  • Store the cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • Add-ins like chopped nuts, dried fruits, or seeds can be mixed into the base for extra flavor and texture.
