No Bake Energy Balls

Recipe adapted from Smashed Peas and Carrots

This is another fabulous recipe that I found on Pinterest, and I can gaurantee you it will not be the last.

These are incredibly easy to make. I have many friends who say they cannot bake, but trust me, anyone can throw these together. You simply mix together all of the ingredients, chill in the refrigerator, and roll into balls! What I love about the recipe is how easy it is to make substitutions. I added butterscotch chips, which I thought added a great fall-like flavor. I am planning on making these around the holiday season with some red and green M&Ms added in. I kept these in my refrigerator and grabbed a few at a time for a quick and easy snack. Enjoy!

    These sound great. I have made a couple snack no-bake balls before but I love this new combination!

    I didn’t have the flax seed so I substituted Graham cracker crumbs and they turned out great. Probably a little less healthy, though.

    This sounds like something yummy and healthy I can make for my kids to take to school or even use for breakfast. I think I’ll try it.

    I modified this recipe to use what I had on hand. Here’s what I used:
    1 Honey/Almond granola
    ½ cup creamy peanut butter
    1 cup coconut flakes
    1 tsp vanilla
    2oz (or two mini boxes) Raisins

    these are delicious just wish I knew what the nutritional values are so I can enter it into WW.
    Enjoy!
