I like that this has such simple ingredients and not a lot of sugar. It held together well and tasted good. Raisins added a nice chewy texture/taste. Good balance of oats to peanut butter. My boys are teens and only attracted to things with chocolate chips in them but they still liked these.
Simple no bake recipe! This would be easy to change by adding chia seeds, carob powder or any other "energy" ingredients!
Uh may as well just get a spoon and eat the peanut butter from the jar. I kept adding raisins honey and oats until I could taste them. Won't make this again but I'm not throwing them out either.
There are a million variations on this recipe, but this is the one to start from. It would be difficult to screw up this recipe. Add whatever you have in the cupboard (sunflower seeds, flax seeds,dried fruits, etc.) and adjust the rest of the ingredients so it's still moist enough to make a ball. I don't worry to much about spoiling, since they rarely last more than a day or two.
Added a sprinkle of cinnamon. Yum!
A quick batch of 16 takes 2C of oats and 1C of peanut butter, plus 3 ish Tblsp on honey and whatever other toppings you want - I've used chocolate chips, cranberries and sunflower seeds. Such a great thing to eat before a busy day or to give to friends who need a boost!
great for my 5 1/2 year old who doesn't like to sit still for breakfast. She's a 'grazer' and this gives her a good sustained level of energy throughout the day
Yum!!!! These were great I would recommend adding 1/4 a teaspoon of vanilla and I put some in the fridge and cooked som they both tasted great! Thanks for sharing this dirtydave. Great recipe thums up.

Just made this with my 7 yr old grandson and he loved it! Super easy and he enjoyed getting his hands in it. Tastes great following the basic recipe but will try nuts seeds and maybe choc chips in the future. Thanks for the recipe!
