Ingredients

  • 1 cup nuts (such as pecans, walnuts, cashews, almonds, etc.)
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1/2 cup all-natural peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions

  • In a food processor or blender, pulse nuts until finely ground (but stop before they start turning to nut butter!). In a large bowl, combine ground nuts, oats, raisins, peanut butter, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well until completely blended (if possible, use an electric stand mixer to make it quicker/easier to fully incorporate the peanut butter and honey). Use a small cookie scoop or spoon to scoop mixture and roll into 1-inch balls (or whatever size you would like them). Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

*You may use dried cranberries or your favorite dried fruit instead of raisins, but if the pieces are large, dice up first.
*You may substitute your favorite nut butter (or nut-free butter) for the peanut butter.
*If the mixture does not stick together when you pinch it together, you may stir in a tad more peanut butter. If it's too sticky, you may roll it into balls using slightly damp hands or refrigerate for 30 minutes before rolling.
