Raw Vegan Protein Balls!

So I decided to make this post public since it gained some interest. :) enjoy!


Oats at least 6 cups or more Raw organic Cocao nibs <---as many as you like, these are pretty bitter. I added 3 handfuls to mine. Guarana 1/2 cup ginger (shredded) <---your preference 1/2 cup coconut flakes 1/2 cup applesauce (or 2 of the Gerber baby sized containers of mixed berry sauce) 4 heaping tablespoons of peanut butter cinnamon 6 table spoons nutmeg 4 table spoons 1/4 cup chia seeds vanilla extract 2 table spoons Agave nectar 1/4 cup Or 3/4 cup brown sugar ( the agave nectar if preferred because it holds the balls together well. You can also soak some dates overnight, drain the wait and purée 2 bananas (optional) If you find that the mixture is too wet, add more oats. mix dry ingredients together first. add in the wet ones, you'll get a firm, sticky lump. break into pieces and roll them into little balls. These can be had as is or can be baked at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. You can also press them flat on a baking sheet and bake them for about 15-20 minutes or so @ 350 degrees take them out, let them cool in the fridge, or if you can't wait, pop them in the freezer. Then cut them into squares/rectangles for that traditional granola bar look.
