Cooking with toddlers in the kitchen is a great activity to keep them entertained but it will teach life skills and form healthy lifestyle and eating habits from an early age.
No bake bliss balls are easy to make and can be stored in the fridge. They can be added to lunch boxes or eaten as a treat. I adapt the recipe depending on what is in the cupboard on a particular day. I roll these bliss balls into smaller sizes so they can fit in the toddlers hand and are easy to eat.
Ingredients
1 cup Oats
12 Seedless Dates
1/2 cup Nuts ( I used peanuts or hazelnuts)
1/4 cup Cacao Nibs
1/4 Cacao Powder
