Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups rolled oats
  • 0.5 cup natural peanut butter
  • 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds or ground flaxseed (optional)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2-3 tbsp almond milk
  • 0.33 cup mini eggs

Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • food processor optional
  • spoon or spatula
  • parchment paper
  • baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Line a baking sheet or plate with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Add rolled oats to a food processor and pulse a few times until slightly broken down.
  3. In a bowl, mix peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
  4. Add oats and chia or flax seeds. Stir until a thick dough forms.
  5. Add almond milk gradually until the mixture holds together like thick cookie dough.
  6. Fold in most of the mini eggs gently, reserving some for topping.
  7. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 20 minutes.
  8. Scoop and roll into small balls using your hands.
  9. Press reserved mini eggs onto the tops for decoration.
  10. Chill again for 10 minutes before serving or storing.

Notes

Chill the mixture before rolling for best results. Swap mini eggs for dark chocolate chips for a year-round version. For a vegan option, use maple syrup and dairy-free chocolate. Wet your hands slightly when rolling to prevent sticking.
