If they are baked as balls, do they stay soft and raw (like other energy oat balls? How long do they keep for?

Hi Melissa

if you bake them they are not longer raw - you can leave them raw but in the summer they need to stay in the fridge and I would omit the baking powder. To stay fresh they would only last a couple of days - up to a week unless you keep them in a sealed container.
