Fold and blend together with a spatula until thick and creamy.\n*   Stir in oats, ground flaxseed, and chocolate. The batter is typically difficult to stir at first, it should get a little easier as it hydrates. If after stirring a while it still feels too dry to clump together into balls, add a teaspoon of soy milk at a time until it starts to form.\n*   Use your hands to divide the mixture into 20 gram balls. The mixture might be a little sticky! But the stickiness is worth it, it means the liquids and oils will soften up the oats and make these tasty lil treats easier to digest.\n*   Roll the balls in hemp hearts. Helps a bit with the stickiness! Cocoa might work instead, if you're into chocolate.\n*   Store in the fridge in a sealed container for up to a week or so. Or freeze and they'll last longer, just thaw at room temperature the day before you wanna eat them.\n","notes":null,"nutritionData":{"serving":{"value":24,"unit":"serving"},"components":{"water":{"value":3.8000000000000003,"unit":"g"},"calories":{"value":2225.122742857143,"unit":"kcal"},"protein":{"value":72.19825714285714,"unit":"g"},"fat":{"value":140.9507142857143,"unit":"g"},"carbohydrates":{"value":196.1808285714286,"unit":"g"},"fibre":{"value":43.75417142857144,"unit":"g"},"sugar":{"value":71.87968571428573,"unit":"g"},"sodium":{"value":9293.86,"unit":"mg"},"iron":{"value":4.1,"unit":"mg"},"calcium":{"value":51.2,"unit":"mg"},"potassium":{"value":357.7,"unit":"mg"}}},"yieldData":{"yields":{"value":24,"unit":"serving"}},"measurementData":null,"ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"almond-butter","emoji":"🥜","name":"Almond butter","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"almonds-roasted","emoji":"🥜","name":"Almonds, roasted","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"almonds","emoji":"🥜","name":"Almonds"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"almonds","emoji":"🥜","name":"Almonds"}]}}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"almonds","emoji":"🥜","name":"Almonds"}]}},{"id":"peanut-butter","emoji":"🥜","name":"Peanut butter","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"peanuts-roasted","emoji":"🥜","name":"Peanuts, roasted","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"peanuts","emoji":"🥜","name":"Peanuts"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"peanuts","emoji":"🥜","name":"Peanuts"}]}}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"peanuts","emoji":"🥜","name":"Peanuts"}]}},{"id":"maple-syrup","emoji":"🍁","name":"Maple syrup","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"maple-sap","emoji":"🍁","name":"Maple sap"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"maple-sap","emoji":"🍁","name":"Maple sap"}]}},{"id":"oats","emoji":"🌾","name":"Oats"},{"id":"flax-seed-ground","emoji":"🥜","name":"Flax seed, ground","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"flax-seed","emoji":"🌱","name":"Flax seed"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"flax-seed","emoji":"🌱","name":"Flax seed"}]}},{"id":"chocolate-dark","emoji":"🍫","name":"Chocolate, dark","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"cocoa-butter","emoji":"🧈","name":"Cocoa butter","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"cocoa-beans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Cocoa beans"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"cocoa-beans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Cocoa beans"}]}},{"id":"cocoa-powder","emoji":"🍫","name":"Cocoa powder","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"cocoa-beans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Cocoa beans"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"cocoa-beans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Cocoa beans"}]}},{"id":"maple-syrup","emoji":"🍁","name":"Maple syrup","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"maple-sap","emoji":"🍁","name":"Maple sap"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"maple-sap","emoji":"🍁","name":"Maple sap"}]}},{"id":"vanilla-extract","emoji":"🫛","name":"Vanilla extract","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"vanilla-pods","emoji":"🫛","name":"Vanilla pods"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"vanilla-pods","emoji":"🫛","name":"Vanilla pods"}]}}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"cocoa-beans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Cocoa beans"},{"id":"maple-sap","emoji":"🍁","name":"Maple sap"},{"id":"vanilla-pods","emoji":"🫛","name":"Vanilla pods"}]}},{"id":"soy-milk","emoji":"🥛","name":"Soy milk","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"soybeans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Soybeans"},{"id":"water","emoji":"💧","name":"Water"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"soybeans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Soybeans"},{"id":"water","emoji":"💧","name":"Water"}]}},{"id":"vanilla-extract","emoji":"🫛","name":"Vanilla extract","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"vanilla-pods","emoji":"🫛","name":"Vanilla pods"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"vanilla-pods","emoji":"🫛","name":"Vanilla pods"}]}},{"id":"cinnamon-ground","emoji":"🪵","name":"Cinnamon, ground","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"cinnamon-bark","emoji":"🪵","name":"Cinnamon bark"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"cinnamon-bark","emoji":"🪵","name":"Cinnamon bark"}]}},{"id":"salt","emoji":"🧂","name":"Salt"},{"id":"hemp-seed-hulled","emoji":"🌿","name":"Hemp seed, hulled","ingredientTree":{"eats":[{"id":"hemp-seed","emoji":"🌿","name":"Hemp seed"}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"hemp-seed","emoji":"🌿","name":"Hemp seed"}]}}],"flattenedEats":[{"id":"almonds","emoji":"🥜","name":"Almonds"},{"id":"peanuts","emoji":"🥜","name":"Peanuts"},{"id":"maple-sap","emoji":"🍁","name":"Maple sap"},{"id":"oats","emoji":"🌾","name":"Oats"},{"id":"flax-seed","emoji":"🌱","name":"Flax seed"},{"id":"cocoa-beans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Cocoa beans"},{"id":"vanilla-pods","emoji":"🫛","name":"Vanilla pods"},{"id":"soybeans","emoji":"🫘","name":"Soybeans"},{"id":"water","emoji":"💧","name":"Water"},{"id":"cinnamon-bark","emoji":"🪵","name":"Cinnamon bark"},{"id":"salt","emoji":"🧂","name":"Salt"},{"id":"hemp-seed","emoji":"🌿","name":"Hemp seed"}]},"usedIn":[]}
