Power Butter Recipes

EASY ENERGY POWER BALLS

Steps:

• Stir all the ingredients together in a large bowl. The mixture will be a bit tricky to stir at first, but with pressing the nut butter and honey around and into the other ingredients, it will eventually turn into a more cohesive mixture.
• If the mixture seems too dry and crumbly, add a bit more nut butter or honey. If the mixture seems too wet, sprinkle in some more oats. Form into 1-inch balls or for a slightly easier time forming the balls, place the mixture into the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes and then roll into balls.
• When forming the balls, a medium cookie scoop is useful and helps to keep each ball the same size - we try to make the balls about 1-inch in diameter, but this is up to you.
• Store energy balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze (wrapped well) for up to 3 months.

POWER BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat oil and pumpkin seeds in a large skillet over medium, stirring occasionally, until oil is melted and pumpkin seeds are just starting to turn golden, about 3 minutes. Add sesame seeds and chia seeds and cook, stirring constantly, until sesame seeds are golden, about 2 minutes. Transfer seeds and oil to a large bowl and add almond butter, maple syrup, salt, and Aleppo-style pepper. Stir vigorously until smooth; let cool.
• Do Ahead: Power Butter can be made 2 weeks ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
