I decided I wanted to make peanut butter balls, today, but realized I'm low on peanut butter. This is a great tragedy, because peanut butter just gets more and more delicious to me. However, I sufficed by combining peanut butter with almond butter.
Here's the recipe, more or less, that I jimmied up.
The measurements are approximate because I was adding stuff in dribs and drabs and taste-testing as I went.
a cup and a bit of nut butter (the good stuff, made of 100% nuts, and not the stuff full of sugar and hydrogenated vegetable oil)
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup dried pineapple chunks
3/4 cup powdered milk
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1/4 cup ground flax
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
about 2-3 Tbsp honey (or to taste)
I mashed all this up together, then rolled it into 1.5" diameter balls, put them in a container (layers separated by parchment paper), and stuck it in the fridge. They're pretty tasty, nutritious as all get-out, and filling.
