These little bites come together in one bowl with pantry staples, no oven required. Chewy oats, peanut butter, flax, and a touch of chocolate make them the kind of snack you’ll want on hand at all times.

Searing the Beef

Swap honey with maple syrup to keep them vegan.
Add dried fruit such as cranberries or apricots for variation.
Use sunflower seed butter to make them nut free.
Stir in a sprinkle of cinnamon for warmth.

Notes

In a large mixing bowl stir together oats, peanut butter, flax, chocolate chips, chia seeds, vanilla and honey until evenly combined. Add a pinch of sea salt.

Cover and refrigerate for 45 to 60 minutes until the mixture firms.

Roll into 1 inch balls, pressing lightly so they hold their shape.

Enjoy straight away or store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

about me

I’ll preface this by saying I’m not a chef — just someone who loves to cook and needed a place to gather and share the recipes that have shaped my kitchen.

From the classics that are always on rotation to the discoveries I’ve stumbled upon along the way, you’ll find them here. Each recipe is shared in its original form, with Anthology’s Notes added at the end to reflect the tweaks and touches that suit our table.

Over the years I’ve tried to make many recipes my own, so you’ll also see those variations woven in.

Basically: cook, taste, adjust, and repeat.
