How To Make The BEST Peanut Butter Balls Recipe – Step by Step Instructions
Step 1 – Grind Old Fashioned Oats in a High-Speed Blender
I pulsed the blender a few times, so the oats were roughly chopped but NOT a powder.
Step 2 – Add Oats, Peanut Butter, Honey, Vanilla, and Salt to a large Mixing Bowl. Mix and add Mini Chocolate Chips. (Optional – add chopped Peanuts)
Step 3 – Have fun rolling up your Healthy Peanut Butter Balls!
I made mine with three different toppings and placed them in small truffle paper cups. Use about a Tablespoon of peanut butter mixture for each bliss ball. You can also use a small cookie scoop. Roll into a ball and dip in your preferred topping. You could add a chocolate chip on top. I used:
- Chopped Peanuts
- Flaked Coconut
- Chocolate Chips
Variations
- Roll in Cocoa Powder
- Roll in Ground Graham Cracker Crumbs
- Use Rice Krispies instead of Oats
- Make with White chocolate chips
- Use semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Use Almond Butter or Cashew Butter
- Add peanut butter chips
- Dip in melted milk chocolate
Storage
Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freeze.
Your Questions Answered
I never have and would need to test a recipe. I do believe honey works the best as it’s sticky.
Absolutely! We love Sunbutter, Almond Butter, and Tahini balls.
I always store mine in the freezer with a layer of parchment between each layer. They defrost quickly.
I love all-natural peanut butter that is a bit runnier. You stir it before serving. I used Santa Cruz Brand.
Add a little extra peanut butter. The balls should hold together easily when you roll them in your hand.
Yum! I love all things white chocolate. You could use white chocolate chips.
You can roll them in Cocoa Powder or Dip them in melted Dark or White Chocolate.
I hope you enjoyed this No-Bake Peanut Butter Bliss Ball Recipe!
