Cooking instruction summary:

Measure out the peanut butter and honey into a large glass bowl, and microwave for 30 seconds.Stir together until well combined.Add oats, dates, coconut, flax and salt and mix until well coated.Cover and chill for 1 hour, and then scoop into 1 inch balls onto a Silpat lined baking sheet. I packed the oat mixture into a small Pampered Chef scoop so that it was firmly pressed together, and then released it from the scoop and rolled it a little with my hands. It's a little bit of a sticky job, but the chilling helps.Chill the balls for another hour, and then put them into a sealed container. I kept mine in the fridge so they would last longer, and we liked how they tasted cold. You can also freeze these for later use.
