Monster Cookie Energy Bites

I. LOVE. M&MS. So freaking much. M&M cookies are my favorite cookies, so obviously the best kind of energy bites are the kind that closely resemble M&M cookies.

These things are the holy grail of game day snacks! When you’re too hot to eat real food, don’t have time to eat a full meal, are too nervous, and don’t want a bunch of food in your stomach because you’re running around and dancing all day.

With lots of carbs from the oatmeal, honey, and M&Ms, and fat from the peanut butter, they really are the perfect way to get a boost of energy when it’s hard to stomach most foods.

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups gluten free rolled oats

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter

  • 1/2 cup honey

  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

  • 1/2 cup-ish mini M&Ms

  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine the oats, peanut butter, honey, and protein powder in a large bowl until well mixed. A large fork or your hands works best.

  2. Add in the M&Ms and chocolate chips.

  3. Use a cookie scoop or large spoon to form even-sized bites. Store in the fridge or freezer.
