simple baked peanut butter and cocoa oatmeal bites

It might be an understatement to say I am obsessed with making oatmeal bites. I cannot get enough of these simple, healthy, low sugar snacks. They only take about 20 minutes to make. They are all under ten ingredients, and they all taste amazing - if I do say so myself :)

I have made Pumpkin Cocoa Oatmeal Bites. 

But these peanut butter and cocoa oatmeal bites are one of my new favorites. I chose to use peanut butter, but if you have an allergy, you can easily substitute another nut butter for the PB.

I figured out that these bites only have ~1 gram of sugar per bite!*
