Notes
Substitute Tips – The peanut butter may by substituted with any nut butter or nut-free seed butter.
Prep Tips – If the batter is too sticky, add more oats or chill the mixture in the fridge for 30 minutes and then roll into bites. If the batter won’t press and roll into balls, add more nut butter and honey. Pressing and squeezing the batter together to roll into bites is the key. The batter won’t simply “roll” into balls like cookie dough batter.
