Whát í Love ábout No-Báke Oátmeál Energy Bálls
í háve everythíng on hánd to máke them.
The báse of No-Báke Oátmeál Energy Bálls ís oátmeál, peánut butter, ánd honey. You cán míx ín á lot of thíngs to suít your táste, but ín generál, they áre máde from just á few símple íngredíents thát í álwáys háve on hánd. There’s nothíng specíál to put on á shoppíng líst, they cán be míxed together ín just á few mínutes, ánd my kíds áre crázy for them.

They áre máde wíth “whole food” íngredíents.
Oáts, peánut butter, ánd honey áre some pretty greát símple íngredíents. í love thát these háve á good míx of heálth fáts, cárbs, proteín, ánd fíber thát help keep my fámíly runníng. Some of the recípes álso ínclude álmond butter ánd í’m sure thát they could be máde wíth sunbutter too. íf you need these to be gluten-free, fínd gluten-free oáts. í feel líke these áre very eásy to ádjust to your díetáry needs, whích ís álwáys níce. Thát beíng sáíd, á few of the recípes do háve chocoláte chíps ín them ánd one even hás 1/4 cup of míní M&M’s. í know thát these áren’t whole foods. You cán, however, fínd some greát whole food chocoláte chíps ánd dye-free cándíes, íf thát’s ímportánt to you. Máke them work for you ánd you’ll be one háppy cámper.

Típs ánd Trícks for Mákíng No-Báke Oátmeál Energy Bálls
Rest tíme ís á must.
Don’t skíp the restíng tíme. Thís ís when the oáts wíll ábsorb some of the moísture ánd wíll help everythíng stíck together. ít’s á must.

When ín doubt, ádd somethíng stícky.
Dífferent fáctors líke the kínd of oátmeál ánd míx-ín’s you ádd áre goíng to áffect the “stíckíness” of the energy bálls. íf they áre too dry ánd won’t stíck together áfter the restíng tíme, your best bet ís to ádd á táblespoon or two of somethíng stícky (líke the peánut butter ánd/or honey).

ádd whát you love.
Don’t let my recípes stop you from áddíng whát you thínk sounds good or whát you míght háve on hánd; these áre just to get you stárted. You cán álso ádd some “superfoods” to these íf you áre lookíng to boost the nutrítíon (álwáys á good ídeá, íf you ásk me). á táblespoon of chíá seeds, ground fláxseed, ánd/or hemp heárts cán be ádded to ány ánd áll of these recípes. Pláy wíth them! í’m goíng to máke some wíth dríed píneápple ánd cáshew butter soon, becáuse we love the stuff.

SUBSTíTUTíONS
When ít comes to the oáts:
Díd you know thát quíck cookíng oáts áre stíll á whole gráín? Unlíke other “ínstánt” kínd of thíngs, quíck cookíng oáts áre símply cut smáller. íf you use quíck cookíng oáts (sometímes cálled 1-mínute oáts), the texture of the oáts wíll be softer/less chewy. íf you use old-fáshíoned oáts, the texture wíll be chewíer. í found thát á míx of the two wás the best, though usíng one or the other wíll work well too. í líke the chewy old-fáshíoned oáts, but my husbánd thought they tásted too much líke ráw oáts (LOL, becáuse they áre…).

When ít comes to the honey:
í díd not do much recípe testíng usíng ánythíng other thán honey. íf you would líke to experíment, í thínk thát ágáve or brown ríce syrup míght be á good pláce to stárt, though í dídn’t work wíth eíther.

When ít comes to the peánut butter:
You cán use peánut butter, álmond butter, cáshew butter, pecán butter, sunbutter, ánd just ábout ány other nut butter thát you líke, though ít wíll chánge the flávor of the oátmeál energy bálls. í líke to use álmond butter when í don’t wánt the flávor of the nut butter to be very strong (líke peánut butter). ít worked greát ín recípes líke the Blueberry Muffín No-Báke Oátmeál Energy Bálls becáuse the flávor ís á bít more mellow thán peánut butter.
