Prep Time 30 minutes
Servings: 10
Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Simple Strawberry Chia Jam *See Notes for Link!
  • 70 g GF Quick Porridge Oats
  • 20 g Oat Flour
  • 15 g Flaxseed Meal
  • 10 g Desiccated Coconut
  • 115 ml Maple Syrup
  • 120 g Peanut Butter Creamy may work best
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • Pinch Salt Omit if PB is salted

Method
 

  1. Cook down strawberries & chia seeds in saucepan for 10-15 min. Allow to cool slightly then pop little teaspoon sized bits on to a silpat, freeze while preparing PB ball
    1/2 cup Simple Strawberry Chia Jam
  2. Mix all ingredients of PB ball together. Mixture should hold together easily when formed into a ball shape. If too crumbly add a bit more maple syrup. Smooth PB may be best for this recipe, though I did manage with crunchy!
  3. Scoop approximately tablespoon size PB ball, flatten out and pop one of the frozen strawberry chia jam bits into the center. Close up to encase jam.
  4. Leave as-is or cover with crushed peanuts, walnuts, desiccated coconut – whatever!
