Orange Currant Energy Balls

I was in the mood for something different to start my mornings off with.  After looking around my kitchen and pantry I concocted the recipe for these tasty orange currant energy balls.

Ingredients:

Zest of 1 orange

1 cup old fashioned oats

2 scoops vanilla protein powder

4 tablespoons powdered peanut butter

1 tablespoon flax seeds

4 tablespoons peanut butter (I used BetterNButter)

¼ cup lite maple syrup

¼ cup dried currants

4 large Mejdool dates

Directions:

1. Add zest, oats, protein powder, powdered peanut butter, and flax seeds to food processor.  Pulse to mix.
2. Add dates, peanut butter, and maple syrup.  Pulse to mix.  Add more maple syrup if needed.
3. Add currants.  Pulse to mix in the currants.
4. Use a cookie scooper to form balls.  Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator until you savor the last one.
