Description
Delightful bouncy balls made with oats, apples, and cinnamon that capture the warmth of fall.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup diced apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 1/2 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)
- 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped (optional)
- 1/4 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients on your countertop and dice the apples into small, bite-sized pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, add almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Stir in the rolled oats, diced apples, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well until everything is thoroughly combined.
- If using, fold in the chopped walnuts and raisins. Ensure an even distribution throughout the mixture.
- Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking. Scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture, rolling it into a ball between your palms. Place shaped bouncy balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate the bouncy balls for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
