Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
Instructions
- Step 1: Place 1 cup rolled oats in a food processor and pulse until finely ground (about 30 seconds) to create a uniform texture.
- Step 2: Transfer ground oats to a mixing bowl, then add 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 2 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp chia seeds. Mix until a cohesive dough forms — it should hold together when pressed.
- Step 3: Fold in 1/2 cup mixed berries (thawed if frozen) using a spatula until evenly distributed.
- Step 4: Scoop 1 tablespoon of mixture at a time and roll into 1-inch balls using your hands. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Step 5: Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set, then store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
