Instructions

Stir all ingredients together in a medium bowl until thoroughly mixed.
Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least half an hour, to make the mix easier to handle and mold.
Once chilled, roll into balls of whatever size you would like. (Mine were about 1″ in diameter.) Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.
Makes about 20-25 balls.

Notes

Add extra oats if too wet.
