Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup Wowbutter (creamy)
  • 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (use certified gluten-free if needed)
  • 1/3 cup ground flaxseed or chia seeds (or a mix)
  • 1/4 cup honey or pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips (dairy-free if needed)
  • 2–3 tablespoons shredded coconut, optional
  • 2–4 tablespoons water or non-dairy milk, as needed for texture

Method
 

  1. Set up your bowl: In a medium mixing bowl, add the Wowbutter, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla, and salt. Stir until smooth and glossy.
  2. Add the dry ingredients: Fold in the oats, ground flaxseed or chia, and coconut if using. Mix until everything is evenly coated and clumps start to form.
  3. Adjust the texture: If the mixture feels crumbly, add water or non-dairy milk 1 tablespoon at a time until it holds together when pressed. If it’s too sticky, sprinkle in more oats or ground flax.
  4. Stir in the chocolate chips: Mix gently so they’re well distributed.
  5. Chill briefly: Pop the bowl into the fridge for 10–15 minutes. This makes rolling neater and helps the bites set up.
  6. Roll into bites: Scoop about 1 tablespoon of mixture and roll into balls with your hands. You should get about 18–22 bites, depending on size.
  7. Set and store: Place the bites on a parchment-lined plate or tray. Chill for at least 30 minutes before transferring to an airtight container.
