Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup Milo powder Classic Milo Energy Balls flavor, no substitutions please
  • 1 cup quick oats
  • 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter Can substitute with any nut or seed butter
  • 1/4 cup honey Or any syrupy sweetener
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts or mini chocolate chips Optional

Instructions

Preparation

  • In a large bowl, combine the Milo powder and quick oats. Mix until the oats are evenly coated.
  • Add the peanut butter, honey, and salt to the bowl. Mix together using a sturdy spoon or your hands until fully combined. If it looks crumbly at first, keep mixing until it forms a dough.
  • If the mixture is too sticky, add a little more oats; if it seems too dry, add a splash of honey.

Forming the Balls

  • Scoop out heaping spoonfuls of the mixture and roll between your palms to form roughly 1-inch balls.
  • Arrange the rolled balls on a tray or plate. Optionally, sprinkle a little more Milo powder on top for garnish.

Chilling and Storing

  • Refrigerate the energy balls for at least 20 minutes to help them firm up.
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge where they can last for up to a week.

Notes

Perfect for after-school snacks, lunchboxes, or midnight munchies. Can be frozen for up to three months. Just thaw a few minutes before serving.
