Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup old -fashioned rolled oats
  • 2/3 cup natural creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup ground flaxseed meal

  5. Roll the portioned mixture between the palms of your hands to form a spherical shape approximately 1 inch in diameter.
  6. Arrange the balls on a parchment-lined tray and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
