Power Balls

makes 3 dozen balls

Ingredients:

• 2 cups old fashioned oats (slightly broken down in the blender)
• 1 cup all natural creamy peanut butter (I use Adams All Natural no-stir)
• 1/2 cup unsweetened finely shredded coconut  
• 1 scoop of your favorite vanilla protien powder (I use XR nutrition)
• 1/8 cup hemp seeds, ground flax or wheat germ  
• 1 cup mix-ins (Enjoy Life mini chocolate chips, dried fruit or chopped nuts are our faves)
• 2/3 cup raw local honey  
• 2 Tbsp chia seeds

Method:

1. Combine all dry ingredients in kitchen-aid mixer bowl.
2. Mix on low until ingredients are well blended.
3. Add wet ingredients to blended dry ingredients.
4. Mix on medium speed until a "dough" forms.
5. Scrape sides of bowl with a spatula and mix again if needed.
6. Remove bowl from Kitchen-aid stand.
7. Using a 2-inch cookie scoop form dough into balls.
8. Set balls on a parchment lined cookie sheet or storage container and refrigerate for at least one hour or until ready to eat.
9. Keep refrigerated up to one week, if they last that long! Enjoy!
