Coconut Peanut Butter Balls

How-to-video

If there’s one thing you’ll always find in our kitchen, it’s a batch of Peanut Butter Balls. These little bites are more than just a treat — they’re a family favorite, packed with wholesome ingredients, and so easy to make that my girls love helping out (especially when it comes to taste-testing!).

We make these 1–3 times a week, and every batch disappears faster than I’d like to admit. They’re perfect as a quick breakfast-on-the-go, a school lunchbox addition, that little pick-me-up with your afternoon coffee, or your treat after a long day. Plus, they’re made entirely with pantry staples — no baking required!

Why You’ll Love These Coconut PB Balls

  • Wholesome and nutritious: Full of healthy fats, protein, and fiber.

  • Naturally sweet: Sweetened only with raw honey.

  • Kid-friendly: Fun for little hands to roll (and nibble).

  • Easy to prep: Ready in minutes, with zero baking involved.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh-ground peanut butter (or your favorite store-bought)

  • 2 cups oats

  • 1 ½ cups unsweetened coconut flakes

  • ⅓–½ cup raw honey (adjust to taste)

  • ½ tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 2 tablespoons flaxseed

Directions

  • Combine: In a large bowl, mix all ingredients together until well blended.

  • Chill: Place the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (overnight if possible). This makes rolling easier.

  • Roll: Once firm, scoop and roll into bite-sized balls.

  • Enjoy! Store them in an airtight container in the fridge — if they last that long!

A Little Note from My Kitchen

These are seriously addicting. Every time I make them, they seem to vanish within a day. There’s something about the chewy oats, nutty peanut butter, and tropical hint of coconut that makes them irresistible. If you’re looking for a healthy, grab-and-go snack that tastes like dessert, give these a try — but don’t say I didn’t warn you!
