Recipe for oatmeal balls
We all know them: Oatmeal balls, coconut balls, magic balls; beloved treats have many names and are made in various ways.
This recipe is how I remember oatmeal balls from my childhood.
Delicious and easy – with the possibility to make a few different twists, depending on what you’re craving.
In my family, oatmeal balls have always been rolled in sugar, but there are plenty of options.
What will you roll your oatmeal balls in… coconut, cocoa, melted chocolate, or something completely different…?
If you want your oatmeal balls to be more adult-oriented, add a little rum to the mixture. The amount of rum is a matter of taste, so remember to taste as you go.
