Ingredients
- 120g porridge oats (use gluten free oats if your child has an intolerance to gluten)
- 60g raisins or dark chocolate chips
- 1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 1 tablespoon runny honey
- 80g almond or peanut butter
Method
- Add the oats and nut butter to a bowl and mix together (for a smoother texture pulse in a blender for a few seconds)
- Add the vanilla, honey, cinnamon and raisins or chocolate chips and mix to form a sticky dough.
- If the dough is too sticky, add more oats. If the dough is a bit too dry, add more nut butter to get just the right consistency.
- Roll the mixture into 1 inch balls.
- Keep in refrigerator and enjoy for up to a week!
