3 ingredient Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Balls
These healthy snacks are made with just three ingredients and follow a simple method that makes them perfect for busy days. All you need are a ripe banana, creamy peanut butter, and rolled oats!
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana: Adds natural sweetness and moisture.
- ½ cup peanut butter: Use creamy or natural peanut butter for best results.
- 1 cup rolled oats: The base ingredient for texture and binding.
Instructions
Mash the Banana:
- In a medium bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Ensure there are no large chunks.
Mix with Peanut Butter:
- Add the peanut butter to the mashed banana and mix until fully combined. The mixture should be creamy and cohesive.
Add the Oats:
- Stir in the rolled oats gradually until evenly mixed. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the oats to soften slightly.
Form Balls:
- Using a spoon or your hands, scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. You should get about 12-15 balls.
Chill and Serve:
- Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Enjoy as a snack or dessert!
