Sarah Tessier, postnatal doula, says “These are my go-to snack for new parents and are an energy kick and chocolate fix all rolled into one.”
Why not make a batch for any new parents in your life? Or yourself. The simple mix-and-roll method means you can also get your kids involved in making them if you have the energy for that before eating one!
Ingredients
2 cups of oats
1 cup of nut butter
1/3 cup of chopped nuts
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
Method
Mix the ingredients together in a bowl and then shape into individual balls before storing in the fridge. Makes approximately 20 energy balls.
