I got this recipe from a coworker and I didn't think much of it when I heard the ingredients just thinking ehhhh just another dry granola tasting thing. But I tried it and they are moist, amd delicious !!! And my kids are picky eaters and they LOVE these!!! I love how much fiber and protein they are getting with these Amish balls. They are also called high fiber balls. The Amish make them a lot and sell them at their market. And they sell them for 75 cents a piece!!! You can make them a lot cheaper!! Note- the recipe calls for bran flakes which you crush up, but I always use raisin bran!!

prep time 10 Min
cook time
method No-Cook or Other
yield Makes around 20 balls

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 1/2 cups quick cooking oats
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes
  • 1/4 cup bran ( i use raisin bran crushed up, bc it already has the raisins in it)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

How To Make amish balls (aka high fiber balls)

  • Step 1
    Mix all ingredients by hand ( I wear a pair of non latex gloves to help with mess) and form into 1 inch balls.
  • Step 2
    Set in the refrigerator and let them firm up amd they are ready to eat!! High in fiber and protein amd very kid friendly !!! My kids eat them up and I like how much nutrition they get in these balls. Yummy !!
