Notes:
HELPFUL TIPS
- Using a cookie scoop truly helps to not only roll these balls, but also to get even portions.
- These are freezer-friendly. Store in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag for up to 1 month. Fridge - up to 1 week.
- Parchment paper is great for separating these if you need to stack them in a small container.
- If the mixture seems dry, add 1-2 tablespoons of honey or peanut butter. If it seems to be too dry, add a little extra oatmeal. The balls should be firm and chewy, as well as a little sticky.
- These bites tend to be sticky, so placing them in the fridge helps to firm them up a bit, making rolling easier.
