No Bake Carrot Cake Balls

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats (make sure gluten free if allergic)
• 1/3 cup cashews, chopped
• 1 T ground flax seed
• 3/4 cup natural peanut butter
• 3 T honey or maple syrup
• 1/4 t ground cinnamon
• 3/4 cup (packed) grated carrot
• 1/3 cup raisins

Method:

1. Thoroughly combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
2. Form into comfortably sized balls, and refrigerate for at least one hour.
3. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.  If there are leftovers, pop them in the freezer to enjoy any time at a moment’s notice!

I love these little guys.  They are perfectly satisfying when you feel like a quick, healthy snack.  Forget processed granola bars!  These are the real deal.
