Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/3 cup almond butter you want it to be loose and pourable*
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/4 cup raisins
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add the almond butter, maple syrup, walnuts and raisins. Stir until everything is well combined.
- Roll the mixture in small balls, about 1-2 tablespoons per ball. If the dough feels sticky, wet your hands before rolling - this will make them easier to roll.
Notes
*I have found that different almond butter brands have different consistencies. If your almond butter is not loose and pourable, you can heat it in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to help soften and loosen it up.
Storage: Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
