Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut flakes, toasted
  • 3 cups quick oats
  • 1 cup ground flaxseed
  • 3 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 cup M&Ms

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 (16 oz.) jar peanut butter (approximately 1.5 cups)
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Toast Coconut: If your coconut flakes aren’t already toasted, spread them evenly on a baking sheet and toast in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes until golden and fragrant. Stir occasionally to prevent burning. Let cool.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the toasted coconut, quick oats, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, and M&Ms. Add the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly with a spoon or use an electric stand mixer to ensure everything is well combined.
  3. Shape Balls: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion the mixture and roll into approximately 40 small fiber balls with your hands. Make sure they are compact to hold their shape.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: No baking needed! Your fiber balls are ready to eat immediately or you can refrigerate them for firmer texture. Store in an airtight container for up to a week for a quick, healthy snack anytime.

Notes

  • Toasting the coconut flakes enhances the flavor and crunch but can be skipped if already toasted.
  • You can substitute peanut butter with almond butter or any nut butter of choice.
  • Add-ins like chocolate chips or dried fruit can be used instead of M&Ms for a different flavor profile.
  • Store fiber balls in the refrigerator to keep them fresh and firm.
  • These fiber balls are perfect for on-the-go snacks or lunchbox treats.
