These no-cook peanut butter-and-fruit balls are a great midday snack or dessert. They also make a fabulous on-the-go breakfast - just pair a few with a banana. To toast the oats and coconut, toss them (separately) in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat until just golden. Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. To make these nut-free, swap in your favorite soy butter.
