The following recipe for Peanut Butter and Jelly Oat Balls is from SurvivalBlog reader A.S.. It requires no cooking. A.S. notes: “If you substitute Nutella for the jelly, then you get something that tastes a bit like a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup.”
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 cups quick-cooking oats, divided
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 6 teaspoons of jam, jelly, or Nutella chocolate cream
Directions
- Combine 1 cup oats, peanut butter, and confectioners’ sugar until well blended.
- Shape dough into 1-1/4-inch diameter balls.
- Flatten the balls into 1/4-inch thick discs.
- Place 1/2 teaspoon of jam in center of one disc; wrap dough around jam.
- Pinch edges to seal; re-shape into a ball. Repeat with remaining jam and dough.
- Roll the balls in the remaining oats.
- Chill the separated balls for 30 minutes on waxed paper or cooking parchment on a platter or cookie sheet, in your refrigerator. No cooking required!
