Day 9 | An Ode to Oatmeal Balls
/Delicious! |
2.5 years later and I can count on one hand the times that my refrigerator has been without these balls. Seriously. They are an easy (one-handed!) snack that is really filling and full of pretty healthy ingredients. Even better? Chase now loves them, too. A great toddler snack!
*Here's the recipe:
Mix everything together then pat firmly into bottom of bowl. Refrigerate for at least an hour (I've also done it overnight) then roll into one-inch balls or cut into squares. Patting it into the bowl first makes this process easier. Refrigerate to store.
Enjoy!
