Notes
Peanut butter: Use smooth, creamy peanut butter for the best texture. If using natural peanut butter, make sure it is thoroughly stirred before measuring.
Oats: Regular porridge oats or quick oats both work well. Quick oats will give the bites a slightly finer texture.
Storage: Store the cookie bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Freezing: These cookie bites freeze well for up to 3 months. Store in a freezer-safe container or bag and thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
