Today:
Luke: "Leta, be quiet, I'm trying to play toys."
Me to Luke: I love you! (over and over and over and over)
Luke: Mommy, I don't like that song.
Saw this recipe on Elizabeth Mullins blog today and had to try it since I had all the ingredients.
She renamed the recipe, so I thought I could, too.
Peanut Butter Granola Balls AKA POWER BALLS!
1 Cup Natural Peanut Butter
1/2 - 3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup raisins, craisins, or your favorite dried fruit
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 cup freshly ground flax seed
2-3 cups whole oats
Step 1 - Mix peanut butter & honey together.

1/4 cup freshly ground flax seed
2-3 cups whole oats
Step 1 - Mix peanut butter & honey together.
Step 2 - Mix in all other ingredients.
Step 3 - Line pan with wax paper & scoop out decent sized balls to store in the refrigerator or freezer.
They're no bake and really fast and easy to make. I used a cookie scoop to make my balls. I got 29 balls.
NEW! Additional tips! If you double the recipe, 1 small jar of peanut butter fits the bill. I have also started switching to agave nectar instead of honey. I also like to add cinnamon and ~100grams of vanilla whey protein powder and about 1/2 cup less of the oatmeal. I like Quick Oats because they're smaller.
Hey Girl! Glad you liked them! I like what you named them better! Sounds better anyways!
