These are a favorite go-to snack for me and my kids. My 3 year old and 1 year old loves them. They do have ingredients in them that you should not give to your child until they are over 1 year old. Just throwing that out there. I have been making a similar recipe for many years now but this one I made a bit healthier so I can kick start my healthy eating. I eat an 80/20 “diet” but I I’m trying to kick it up a notch. I also make these for the women’s event at church and they absolutely LOVE them! I didn’t tell anyone I made them just to see if they liked them, people kept going back to get more. They are also such an easy grab and go snack. I put three into a snack size Ziploc and take it to go. Super easy and healthy.
I hope you make these and enjoy them as much as we do!
Ingredients (picture below):
1 Cup Oatmeal
1/2 Cup Peanut Butter (I use natural, super chunky peanut butter to add more crunch to it, YUM!)
1/2 Cup Flaxseed
1/2 Cup Walnuts (I chop them up in the food processor)
1/3 Cup Honey
1 tsp Vanilla
Directions:
Put all the ingredients into a food processor and mix. I typically have to scrape the sides 1-2 times in the mixing process. You could just put everything in a mixing bowl and mix until all together if you do not have a food processor.
Put them into the fridge (I just leave them in the food processor) for 30-60 minutes.
Take them out and roll them into small bite size balls.
Put them into a container and put them back into the fridge.
Take out what you need and keep them rest refrigerated.
They are super simple and easy to make.
