Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, creamy peanut butter, and honey or maple syrup. Stir until well combined, and the mixture becomes sticky.
- If desired, fold in the mini chocolate chips for an extra touch of sweetness and flavor.
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Evenly distribute the oat mixture into the muffin cups, pressing down firmly to create a compact layer.
- Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the oat cups to set.
- Once set, remove the cups from the muffin tin and enjoy! These no-bake peanut butter oat cups are perfect for on-the-go snacking or as a sweet treat.
Notes
- Feel free to mix in your favorite nuts, seeds, or dried fruit to add variety to these oat cups.
- Almond butter can be used as a substitute for peanut butter.
- Swap honey or maple syrup with agave syrup or coconut nectar for different sweetening options.
- For vegan options, use maple syrup and ensure your peanut butter is free of animal products.
- For a boost in protein, you can add protein powder to the mixture.
