No-Bake Peanut Butter Balls

2 and 1/2 c rolled oats
1 c peanut butter
1/2 c honey
1/4 c shelled sunflower seeds
1/2 c shelled peanuts, chopped

Toast the oats in a frying pan by stirring constantly over medium heat till lightly browned, 5 or 10 minutes.
Soften peanut butter for 30 seconds in microwave.
Stir in honey and add the rest of ingredients.
Roll teaspoonfuls into small balls and chill.



Keep these in the fridge for a quick, satisfying snack.
The original recipe was for granola bars and, although delicious, they didn't hold together and were a pain in the dumpling to eat. I made other ingredients changes.

The original recipe also called for an optional addition of 1/2 c of chocolate chips. Without them, everything in these balls is good for you!
