These delicious oat balls are a great post workout boost or simply a delicious way to get through a busier morning. Full of good fibre to fuel fitness and feed that hungry gut microbiome.
>> Ingredients (makes 12 balls)
2 cups gluten free oats
1 banana
¼ cup almond butter
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 tablespoon ground flax seed
½ teaspoon mixed spice
3 stoneless dates
3 tablespoons dried blueberries
Pinch salt
>> Method
> Add the oats to a food processer and give a few short bursts to roughen and chop them up, you can go quite fine, but we like some texture to the final balls.
> Remove them and set aside in a large bowl. Add the banana and nut-butter and dates to the processor and blitz until it becomes really smooth.
> Pour over the oats and add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl. Give it all a good mix. After a while it should all start coming together, eventually you will be able to roll into balls – They might feel a little wet but firm up when you chill them.
Keep in the fridge ready for when you have to grab and go.
