How To Make gluten free fruit and nut balls

Step 1

Mix honey and peanut butter until smooth with a mixer. Remove from mixer blades and gradually add oats and flax seed and start mixing with your hand. Next add chocolate chips and mix again by hand. When everything is mixed in well, take a teaspoon of dough and roll into a small ball (or flattened if desired). Store in a closed container in refrigerator with wax or parchment paper between layers so they won't stick. NOTE: These can be pressed into muffin liners and then stacked on each other in your container in the refrigerator. Easy to serve this way too.
