Peanut Butter Balls

1/2

cup

honey

2

Tbs

butter

1

cup

non-fat non-instant dry milk powder

1/2

cup

peanut butter, creamy organic

1

tsp

pure vanilla

4

cup

Nature's Path Organic Whole O's Gluten Free Cereal

1

Heat honey and butter in pan until butter is melted and mixture is hot and thinned. Add peanut butter and vanilla, mix well and remove from heat when mixture is smooth and creamy. Add powdered milk and mix until it looks mostly smooth.

2

NOTE: non-fat non-instant milk will not dissolve completely. There will be tiny little balls of milk that will make the peanut butter mixture look like crunchy peanut butter. This is as smooth as you can expect it to get. These little milk balls will dissolve or melt in when rolling or forming them into balls with your hands.

3

Form into balls about 1 1/2" in diameter. Add cereal, stir until well-coated. Form into small balls with your hands. Makes about 24 balls. Eat as snack or candy.

The cereal is found in the gluten free section of Walmart. The recommended peanut butter is Kroger Simple Truth Organic Creamy No-Stir Peanut Butter. The texture of the balls is better if you use a couple of tablespoons shy of 1 cup of dry milk powder.
