Ingredients

  • 1 cup oat
  • 0.25 cup coconut
  • 0.5 cup crispy rice cereal
  • 0.25 cup ground flax seed
  • 0.33 cup honey
  • 0.5 cup cashew butter
  • 0.5 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.33 cup chocolate chip

Steps

  1. Place all of the ingredients into a large bowl, it does not matter which order the ingredients go in. Mix together with a spoon or with your hands.
  2. Place the bowl of dough into the fridge for 30 minutes. This is to make them not as sticky and easier for the kiddos to shape into balls.
  3. Remove from fridge, and take roughly a tablespoon of the dough in your hands and roll into a ball. If dough gets too sticky you can put the bowl of dough back into the fridge or wet hands with a little water to help the dough not stick to your hands. You may have to help younger kids measure out the right amount of dough and get the balls roughly started. It was frustrating for my 3 year old to get the balls started but if I pressed them roughly into shape she could finish forming them. All the balls will not be the same size or even be in ball form. This is completely okay! We don't want a Pinterest picture here, we want a fun experience with a sweet treat.
  4. Store the balls in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
