 Here is a recipe for "Energy Balls" by Joseph Bank.  I found it in the March
 issue of Bicycling magazine. 
 
 Ingredients
 
 24 Dried Figs                  1/3 cup Honey
 4 tbsp   Orange Juice          2 tbsp  Lemon Juice
 1 tsp    Lemon Juice           2 1/2 cups unbleacher flour
 1/2 tsp  Baking Soda           1/4 tsp Baking Powder
 1 tbsp   Applesauce            1/2 cup Dark Corn Syrup
 2 Egg Whites		       1 cup   Oat Bran
 
 Directions
 
         Add figs, honey, orange juice, and 2 tbsp lemon juice to food 
 processor and mix on "chop" until fig bits are finely cut. Set aside.
 	Put all other ingredients (except oat bran) in mixing bowl.  Beat
 with an electric mixer 3 - 4 minutes at medium speed.  Add fig mixture and 
 beat until everything blends.  Roll 20 - 24 balls and coat with oat bran
 poured on a plate.  Place balls on a pan and bake at 350 deg. for 10 minutes,
 or until they are warm and a bit puffy.  Place in a refrigerator to harden.
 For a crunchier texture, bake 2 - 5 minutes longer, or until dough is
 thoroughly cooked.
