Cranberry Oatmeal Bliss Balls
Cranberry Bliss Balls
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Quick Oats (90 grams)
- ⅓ cup Shaved Almonds (30 grams)
- 1 tsp Chia Seeds (5 grams)
- ½ cup Creamy Peanut Butter (125 grams)
- ¼ cup Honey (75 grams)
- ½ cup Dried Cranberries roughly chopped, (80 grams)
Instructions:
- In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients: oats, almonds, and chia seeds.
- Then add the wet ingredients: peanut butter, honey, and chopped cranberries into the bowl. Stir until well combined. You will start to form large clumps. Be sure to scrap the sides to get all of the dry ingredients incorporated.
- Now using a regular spoon, scoop out enough mix to make a one inch ball. Using your hands roll the ingredients around until you have formed the 1 inch ball. If your mixture is too dry, add a teaspoon of water. A little tip: your warm hands will help the ingredients stick together and remove any little cracks in your balls.
- Continue scooping out ingredients and rolling 1 inch balls until you have used up all of the mix. You should be able to create 12 balls.
- Store in the fridge or freezer.
