In reply to Amy Winkel. Oh no! So sorry to hear that, Amy. I wonder what could have happened here. Was your mixture wet or just sticky?

Unfortunately, these were a miss for us. My mixture was pretty sticky. I think maybe I needed more oats, but they wouldn’t make a ball, just flattened. And my family didn’t like the taste. Made me sad because I was hoping for a healthier substitute to peanut butter balls, which we actually love.

These are every bit as good as my classic Christmas buckeye candies that were made with powdered sugar and graham crackers. Thanks for the recipe!

In reply to Stacy. Hi Stacy - I wouldn't because the date paste will add more moisture to the mixture. I would stick to whole dates for this one!

Can I just use date paste for these instead of whole dates and if so, is the ratio the same? Thank you, they look delicious!

In reply to Rebecca. Hi Rebecca! Hmm, what was the consistency of your dough? Was it too wet or more on the dryer side? You might have needed a bit more PB if they weren't sticking together!

These look yummy but I haven’t tasted mine yet. But, I make your Choc PB Protein balls weekly and your Choc PB protein smoothie every day so I know I will love them. Question: mine couldn’t roll into a ball and ended up more like a coin. I added the extra tablespoon of oats and that didn’t help – should I add more oats next time to firm them up so I can roll?

In reply to Irene. Yeah…these are dope. Is it still healthy if I eat 5 in a row? Made once already, about to make them again :)

Doubled or tripled the dates and oats and used homemade peanut butter with some almond flour mixed in. There were so delicious that we ate them all before we could even coat them with chocolate! There is a place in town that makes something similar and I was addicted…but now I can store them myself in the freezer! Thanks!

My husband LOVES peanut butter balls, but I rarely make them because of all the sugar. I made these this weekend and they are absolutely wonderful!!!! I 4x the recipe to have plenty. I had no problem with them being too sticky. We are cyclists and I took some to eat while riding and they were great. Thanks for a great recipe!!

In reply to Janice. Mmmm.. sounds like they were too wet and might of needed even more oats maybe?

They were very messy trying to roll the dough. Any tips. I did add the additional tablespoon of oats.

In reply to Cheryl. So glad you love these, Cheryl! You could try placing the dough in the fridge to harden up a bit before rolling them into balls?

I love the taste of this snack! Any suggestions for making the peanut butter balls firmer for rolling. When I scoop out the tablespoon to roll into a ball it will not hold form. Still love the taste.

In reply to Maura. Totally sun butter will work great as a sub for the peanut butter.
