Hiking Food 101: Peanut Butter Balls

I am a hiker, I love walking and it requires nothing more than your body and some decent hiking shoes and there is always someplace to go. Whether in your backyard, a nature preserve (my favorite) or some of our local parks it is often. But if you’re more of a seasoned hiker and take extended trips you may also like to bring small snacks with you to give you little boots of energy throughout your trip. So here is my first recipe that is a favorite and is likely to become one of yours as well:

Peanut Butter Balls

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 cup dry milk
  • 1 cup uncooked oatmeal
  • Wheat germ

Directions: At home, combine peanut butter and honey. Gradually stir in dry milk and oatmeal. Shape into balls and roll in wheat germ. Let “dry” several hours on wax paper. Wrap individually in plastic wrap.

    Sounds tasty, but I am such a health freak I would rather have something like food bars or energy bars to keep me going. Anyone have any healthy or organic snacks that they bring hiking with them?

    thanks for that recipe.

    I am diabetic and peanut butter is one of the few of my favorite tasty things that is still (relatively) Ok for me to eat in moderation.
