 ½ tsp ground cardamom
 ½ tsp ground allspice

3

Chef's Notes

Substitutions
In place of ashwagandha, you can use any adaptogen powder you’d like. Adaptogen blends made with reishi, cordyceps, or astragalus are great for this recipe.

In place of oats in this recipe, try puffed millet, quinoa, or amaranth.

Where to Find Ashwagandha Powder
You can find ashwagandha powder online and, occasionally, in specialty grocery stores or natural food markets.

Storage
Store ashwagandha balls in the refrigerator for up to 14 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
