I love having something to satisfy my sweets craving, especially after dinner, and these little Bites are perfect! Like these Carrot Cake Bites, they are so easy to make!
Just one or two completely hit the spot. 🙂 You could even have them as an afternoon snack with an apple or banana.
Plus they are no bake as well like the Homemade Lara Bars I make! Kids would love to be little helpers rolling the balls for you.
You can easily make them with all-natural peanut butter, cashew butter or sunflower butter too.

I made these chocolate oatmeal balls today and I think I found my new favorite snack! I wanted to make a healthy snack for myself and my grandchildren and this is it! I have some cacao powder and cacao balls I recently brought back from the Domican Republic I’ve been dying to use so I found this recipe and decided to try it! I did substitute cacao instead of cocoa powder. I also used the hand grater and grated the cacao ball into the mix and it gave it a richer chocolate flavor. My family doesn’t like coconut so I added some craisans. Instead of nuts I used some ground up Honey Nut Chex I had on hand for texture. The finished product was amazing and my family loves them, even the 2 year old! I will definitely be keeping plenty of these on hand! Be careful though they’re like Lays potato chips, you can’t eat just one!

This makes me so happy to hear!!

Can you put protein powder in these?
Sherri
Yes absolutely! Add 1 or 2 scoops. Some protein powders absorb more water than others so if the mixture becomes dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time until you can form the balls.

These look delicious, I think it might be hard to stop at just having one.
Hannah
These look absolutely delicious! And I have all the ingredients, so I think I will be making these tonight! I’ve been on an elimination diet, and it is such a struggle finding sweet treats that don’t have refined sugars in! I’m just going to swap the honey with some maple syrup, then I’ll be set to go! Thanks, Hannah
