No Bake Trail Mix Energy Bites

No-Bake Trail Mix Energy Bites are filled with raisins, peanuts, chocolate chips, and M&MS! The perfect quick snack for hiking, beach trips, or school lunches! 

Hi guys!

How’s the week going? What’d ya do last weekend?

We went out to the lake and had the best time. I’m obsessed with all things outdoors right now and thankfully, the tiny people I live with don’t seem to mind. We’ve hiked every trail in the area, swam in every lake, and I’m forever looking for new places to explore.

I’m already excited to spend every weekend for the rest of summer down at the lake.

Since I knew we’d be out there most of the day, I packed a small bag with lots of water, fresh fruit, and these No-Bake Trail Mix Energy Bites.

My boys love these bites!

They’re oats and peanut butter (sweetened with a bit of honey) and then you mix in raisins, peanuts, mini chocolate chips, and mini candy coated chocolate candies. So they’re delicious and great for when you need an energy boost.

Also, since they’re no bake, they’re super easy and can be tossed together in literally minutes. They’re great for any kind of hiking or beaching or even just as a work or school snack.

Ingredients

• Old fashioned oats
• Raisins – you could use dried cranberries or cherries if you prefer.
• Peanuts – I like to use salted peanuts so you get that delicious sweet and salty thing.
• Chocolate chips – I used milk chocolate but you could use semisweet or bittersweet.
• Mini M&Ms
• Peanut butter – I used smooth because we already have crunchy peanuts in the bites.
• Honey – this sweetens and helps the bites stick together.

How To Make No Bake Trail Mix Bites

• Dry ingredients. Stir together oats, raisins, peanuts, chocolate chips, and M&Ms.
• Wet ingredients. In a small saucepan over low heat, stir together ½ cup peanut butter and honey until melted. Let cool slightly.
• Combine. Pour over the trail mix and stir to combine.
• Roll. Roll into 1-inch balls and refrigerate until ready to serve.

How Long Are They Good For?

These trail mix bites will be good for up to a week. Make sure to store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
