No Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Energy Balls Recipe
I have seen a lot of recipes for energy balls on Pinterest and always intend to make them. Like most things I end up pinning, I rarely follow through with the creation part. Well, this time we are changing that.
After all of my Lemon Oreo recipe shenanigans, it’s time for a healthier snack recipe. This post contains affiliate links, which could help us feed our peanut butter obsession.

I am in love with these energy balls. They are so full of flavor and texture. I am not sure how much actual energy they give me, but they are definitely better than the snacks I had been reaching for.
I cannot wait to make these energy balls with different variations. They are so delicious I pretty much wanted to hide them for myself.
Peanut butter energy balls are great to snack on for after school (watch for allergies), hiking, and any other adventures you have planned. Toss some in a lunch tote and enjoy on-the-go!
This sounds delicious! Definitely a great choice right before a workout!
Yes please! These came out awesome! Looks like I need to hit up the grocery store. I can see myself addicted to these easily! Would give me something to alternate with Yasdo bars lol 🙂
These sound delicious and I LOVE that they are no make! I haven’t tried using cashews in a recipe like this, but I bet it is yummy. Pinning!
Oops I meant I love they are “No Bake” in my first comment. I accidentally typed “No Make”
You had at no bake. They look so good and so easy to make. Perfect for that 3 pm snack
That sounds so good. I am starving right now so I need several of those peanut butter energy balls.

These no bake peanut butter oatmeal energy balls sound very interesting, I will need to give them a try. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Oh the health benefits of those ingredients look great! But it still sounds like such a treat. I bet the kids would gobble these just as quickly as they would a cookie 🙂
These are really healthy and delicious not bake cookies that I want to make and have for after my exercise routine! They look easy to make, and thanks for sharing!
These look delicious! I would also add raisins. I love me some raisins.
I love making no-bake energy bars, and I would love to try this! I think I will buzz the oatmeal in a food processor, though. Yum!
A nice alternative to the usual no bake cookies. Thanks for the recipe.
I have been looking for different things to eat that are healthy. I am going to make these but switch it up to almond butter since I can’t have peanut butter. I am sure it will taste just as good.
This is a great idea and i will definitely copy this idea so my kids can try this as well.Healthy and the new yummy indeed!!
