this recipe &t.constructor;&t;We love a good easy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites…or maybe these Red Velvet Cookie Dough Bites ;)
With just seven ingredients, these bites are super easy to make. They’re perfect for serving to those who are a bit pickier, or who have allergies too since they’re naturally:
- Gluten-Free
- Vegan & Dairy-Free
- Refined Sugar-Free
- Easy to make nut-free
- Ready in 5 minutes
- Super delicious!
Here’s what you need to make these oatmeal bites:
- Peanut Butter: or just the nut butter of your choice! You can also use a seed butter to keep these nut-free. I used a crunchy peanut butter for a little extra texture.
- Maple Syrup: as our refined sugar free sweetener. You can also use honey (not vegan, though) or date syrup.
- Gluten-Free Rolled Oats: these add such a delicious texture to the bites.
- Gluten-Free Oat Flour: this helps hold our bites together. You can use almond flour here too if preferred.
- Vanilla Extract, Cinnamon & Salt: our flavor agents! These all add delicious extra flavor to our bites. Skip or reduce the salt if you’re using a salted nut butter.
Putting these bites together couldn’t be simpler either – just stir together all of the ingredients, divide the dough into about 15 balls (I love using my OXO small cookie scoop for this), roll them into perfectly round balls, and devour!
Want to jazz them up a bit? Try adding some mini chocolate chips to the mix, or drizzle the finished bites with dark chocolate!
To store:
You can eat these immediately, but if you have some leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
They’re so great to have on hand when you need a quick pick-me-up, and because they’re made with peanut butter, they’re loaded with healthy fats to help keep you full!
