Try this oatmeal-based snack for a granola bar substitute. Lots of protein in the peanut butter with fiber in the oats and flaxseed. Plus you get the sweetness of honey and dark chocolate. Almost like a cookie, but in a ball for fun!

I really wish the nutrition info was here as I am on Weight Watchers and need this info otherwise I don’t make them
Too me they are not healthy unless you post this info
Hi Kathy,
As I shared with Tammy on a prior comment, I don’t provide nutrient breakdowns for my recipes, but focus on cooking healthy and eating healthy. There are some great free online nutrient/ingredient breakdown calculators that can provide you with this info in seconds. I really enjoy these as a healthy snack.
Stay Healthy!

Hi Tammy and thanks for enjoying my recipe. I do not have a nutrient breakdown for my recipes, but focus on cooking healthy and eating healthy. There are some great and free online nutrient breakdown calculators that can provide you with an approximate. I really enjoy these as well and eat two at a time for a snack. Stay Healthy! Darla
What can u use instead of flaxseed please
Hi Patty. Feel free to omit and add extra oats instead. If you bake with protein powder, adding a scoop of a vanilla protein blend would be an option as well. Take into consideration that anything with a drier consistency that is added, adjusting the liquids will also be necessary. Stay Healthy!
