Meal Prep Instructions
Grind nuts
grind nuts using small food processor or coffee grinder – you can also finely chop but the ingredients won’t give as smooth of a texture or stick together as well.
I use this grinder weekly to quickly and efficiently add nuts/seeds to my meals!
Mix all ingredients
Add everything to a bowl, fold ingredients together until consistency is thick and sticky. It’s best to put gloves on and get in there with your hands to really form everything together
Rolling test
Test by rolling and squeezing a spoonful amount in your palms to see if the ingredient’s stick and form a smooth ball. If the dough needs more structure, add more oats and if it needs to be stickier, drizzle more of creamy peanut butter and maple syrup. You may have to adjust recipe to texture preference!
Form balls
roll and store in the fridge (they will also harden and combine more in a cooler temp so don’t worry if they feel a little mushy from the heat of your hands)
Storing:
store in airtight food container in the fridge and enjoy within one week
