Baking with Friends

Here is a tasty snack that has all the right ingredients for a energy boost! All the ingredients are packed with just what your body needs to stay alert and strong and it tastes yummy too. They are not baked; they just need to be frozen and when you want to eat one you can either pop them in the microwave for about 30 seconds, just let them thaw for about 10 minutes, or eat them frozen! Either way you eat them they taste good and they are good for you! Enjoy!

I made these with my sister and her roommates, Josie and Rosanna, who are all very fit and health conscious in an inspiring way! Josie even has a instagram account with thousands of followers and has countless ideas for workouts, healthy food, and inspiring words. Follow her @vmfitness

Ingredients

• 2 cups oats
• 1 cup peanut butter or other nut butter
• 2/3 cup honey
• 2 cup coconut flakes
• 1 cup ground flaxseed
• 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions

Mix all ingredients together. Roll into balls.

Place balls on a cookie sheet and freeze for one to two hours. Remove from cookie sheet and place in an airtight ziptop freezer bag (or other airtight container).

We tried microwaving some as cookies before freezing them, but we put them in for a minute and a half (too long!) so heat them up for only about 30 seconds.

Enjoy!

Makes around 3 dozen energy bites.
