Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Cutting Board
  • Knife

Ingredients

1 cup rolled oats

1/3 cup shelled pistachios, chopped

1/3 cup dried cranberries, chopped

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup almond butter

Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine the oats, chopped pistachios, chopped cranberries, and salt.

    2. Add the honey and almond butter, and mix thoroughly until the dry ingredients are fully coated.

      3. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes so the oats can absorb some moisture, which makes rolling easier.

        4. Roll into balls, pressing firmly so the pistachio pieces don't fall out as you shape them.

          5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

            Notes

            These work well for holiday snack trays since the colors read festive without any food dye involved.
