Peanut Butter and Apple Oat Balls

January 26, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 22 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Today I am sharing with you the first balls of the year!  You know how I love my balls!  And why is it so fun to say? I maybe a little immature.  he he   Anyway, I have been loving the combo of apples and peanut butter lately and I thought, why not make it into a raw cookie dough balls?  Balls….
Peanut Butter and Apple Oat Balls
These little balls are full of peanut butter and apple flavor with just the right amount of cinnamon and super low in sugar. I only used a teaspoon of maple syrup to sweetened it up. When you pop a ball in your mouth they just melt. Oh baby, so yummy and my gosh so easy to make!!!
Peanut Butter and Apple Oat Balls
To make these delicious, healthy, gluten-free little balls, all I used was natural peanut butter and apple sauce. So easy!! For the oats, I used Trader Joe’s gluten-free rolled oats and processed it in the food processor to make a flour like consistency. These only take just a few minutes to make. I love that it’s all natural and so darn good. makes for a perfect little snack.
Peanut Butter and Apple Oat Balls
Let me tell you these were not easy to photograph! I made these the other night and the pictures turned out horrible!! Then the next day I took pictures in the afternoon, hoping for good light and nope still looked like crap. Little Jenny suggested taking them outside since it was overcast and sure enough she was right. Finally they turned out., not perfect, but way better.  You’ll have to forgive the frosty look to them, they were in the freezer. Oh, you can freeze these balls and let them sit out for a couple of minutes and they turn out all nice and soft.

These little balls are really the perfect snack. I have been munching on them after work. I love how healthy and filling that they are. Oh and the best part, it’s so fast to whip together! Why not give them a try? Just be sure to store them in the freezer or refrigerator.

Well my Friends, I am sooooooo far behind on my blogging! I need to get cooking. I have been kind of lazy lately.

Jennifer

    Yumm! So good! I actually ground the oatmeal in my coffee ginder, which made me think, “hmm maybe I should add some ground coffee to these!” Turned out great!! 🙂

    Hi, these look great! Would whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour work instead of the oat flour? If so, which one would work better?

      Hi Lizzie! Either flour will work great! 🙂 Choose whatever one you like better. Enjoy!

    Can you use smashed banana instead of applesauce?

      Hi Austin, I don’t see why not? The flavor may change a little bit adding a banana flavor, but I think it maybe pretty good. Let me know how they turn out.

The Kissing Booth sign is reversible and the other side says kissing booth, kiss me I’m Irish with green writing and green lips. I’ll share the other side in stories. It’s so cute!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.

What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together. 
🌿
Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
