Chocolate Peanut Butter Coconut Granola Bites {Honey Sweetened}




You can already tell these will be a sweet treat by the name, right? 

Easy to make and delicious to enjoy. No added refined sugar....
just some honey for your Honey.

These 'healthier' treats will turn a frown upside down anyday! 

I found the recipe at Dawn's DJ's Sugar Shack. She added the coconut to the recipe, so I decided to use coconut oil instead of the called canola oil. 

I love simple and quick recipes like this one that everyone will go wild over!
Using only 6 simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. Your family will be so surprised and love you for making these treats today. 



CHOCOLATE PB COCONUT GRANOLA BITES
{Honey Sweetened}

1/2 c. peanut butter
1/3 c. honey
1/4 c. coconut oil
2 c. quick oats
1 c. semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 c. shredded (unsweetened) coconut 

Line 24 mini muffin cups with papers. 

In medium saucepan, over medium heat, stir peanut butter, honey and oil together. Heat until the peanut butter is melted; continue to stir until mixture is smooth. 

Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips.  When they are mostly melted, stir in oats and coconut. Scoop mixture into paper liners. 

I taste tested one within a few minutes, but if you are impatient, you can freeze them for 10 minutes or so before eating.
