For a smoother texture, use creamy peanut butter. If you prefer a bit more crunch, use chunky peanut butter. Feel free to substitute other nuts or dried fruits for the pecans. Walnuts, almonds, or dried cranberries would all be delicious additions. To prevent the balls from sticking together in the refrigerator, make sure they are not touching on the baking sheet. For a vegan version, substitute the honey with agave nectar or maple syrup. These Health Balls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

May 4, 2025I found that chilling the mixture for a bit before rolling them into balls made the process much easier.
