No Bake Almond Oat Energy Bites

"Got this recipe from Vegetarian Times. I didn't have Barley Malt Syrup - I used honey only. My boys LOVED them (thank goodness!). I bought the pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds in bulk so it made this recipe less expensive than buying the seeds packaged. I'm sure the almond butter could be replaced with peanut butter. Enjoy! Note: I have since made these many times and boy are they yummy! I did make them with Barley Malt and it adds a great flavor."

  1. Lovely! Crunchy, squishy and sweet. I will add more raisins and maybe some other spices next time (nutmeg? cloves? more cinnamon? I can't get enough flavor in my food!) A wonderfully earthy snack. ~ For PAC 2008
     
  2. As I was blending the ingredients, a wave of dread came over me as thought about all the ingredients and how there's NO WAY that without baking this dish it could taste good.... i was sooo wrong. It's sweet and healthy and perfect for the rug-rats!
