Ingredients
1 cup peanut butter (an all natural PB is recommended — the only ingredient necessary is crushed peanuts)
1 cup honey
3 cups rolled oats (oatmeal)
1 cup of nuts or dried fruit (or whatever your heart desires)
Crushed nuts, granola cereal, or unsweetened coconut
1 cup honey
3 cups rolled oats (oatmeal)
1 cup of nuts or dried fruit (or whatever your heart desires)
Crushed nuts, granola cereal, or unsweetened coconut
Directions
Mix the first four ingredients together thoroughly. Form them into balls (makes about 10-12 depending on size) then roll them in the crushed nuts, granola cereal, or unsweetened coconut. Serve or refrigerate.
I did about 3/4 a cup cranberries for the fruit and 1/4 cup chopped pecans! I would also consider cutting back on the honey because it was well, pretty honey-y!

I've been wanting new healthy snack ideas! I'm going to have to try these. I bet my kids will love them.
ReplyDeleteSam and I just made these together and they're so delicious! Sam liked doing the stirring and snitching bites out of the bowl. He also kept spooning the coconut from the little bowl into the big bowl full of the mixture. Thanks for posting the recipe, Bug!
ReplyDeleteOh good I'm glad you liked them!
