Time: 15 minutes
Serves: Makes approximately ten 1.5-inch balls
Ingredients:
-
1/2 cup old fashioned oats
-
1/4 cup instant oats
-
1/4 cup nut butter
-
1 teaspoon chia seeds
-
1 teaspoon flaxseeds
-
splash of water or almond milk
-
(optional) dark chocolate bits
-
(optional) 1 scoop vegan protein powder
Directions:
-
Measure out dry ingredients and combine in mixing bowl.
-
Using hands or a spatula, mix in nut butter (I used peanut butter for the bliss balls pictured) and a bit of liquid. The consistency should be firm yet gooey, like cookie dough.
-
Roll out dough to make balls’ diameter slightly larger a silver dollar. Place in sealed container and refrigerate.
This recipe can be modified with various add-ins, like coconut flakes, raisins, or additional seasoning from cinnamon or agave. I find that protein powder and PB add enough flavor for me, but modify to appeal to your tastes!
