Protein Balls
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
- 3/4 cup almond butter
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons local honey
- 1/4 cup sesame seeds
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1/4 cup hemp seeds
- 3 dates, finely chopped
- Pinch salt
Instructions
- Pulse oats in a food processor or blender until coarsely ground. (It's OK if some oats are left whole.) In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. You may need to adjust amount of oats, depending on how liquidy the nut butters are. You want the mixture to hold together and be firm. Use a small ice cream scoop to form balls. Roll balls in sesame seeds, cocao nibs, ground nuts, bee pollen or leave plain. Refrigerate. The balls keep in an air-tight container in the fridge for about 2 weeks.
