Preparation time + cooking: 10 min + 0 min
Makes 15:
- 1 cup of porridge oats
- 1/2 cup of chocolate chips (preferably dark chocolate)
- ⅓ of a cup of honey
- ½ cup of mixed crushed seeds
- ½ cup of peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla sugar
- (optional) For an even tastier recipe, you can add dried fruit or even some of your child's favourite cereals
1/ Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix well. You can use a wooden spoon or simply use your hands. A small tip: if you don't want the ingredients to stick to your fingers, wet your hands first.
2/ Place the mixture in the fridge for 20 minutes so it's easy to shape into little balls.
3/ Roll into small balls and then place them in a Tupperware in the fridge.
Storage/transport
Keep them in a closed Tupperware.

The good thing about cooking yourself is that you can ensure your child is eating healthy, minimally-processed food, and have fun. So, head straight for your oven or, rather, your camp-fire!
