Banana Oat balls

Nice, delicious, healthy. Oat flakes biscuits are delicious balls made with oats and bananas enriched with what you like most: blueberries, dates, raisins, cinnamon, chocolate, honey. A delicious and super super healthy snack. Don’t linger, try them!!!

Ingredients for about 20 balls

  • 2 medium bananas: The riper the banana the better.
  • Oat flakes 300 gr
  • grated zest of 1 lemon
  • Optional:
  • blueberries/ dates/ dried fruits/ dark chocolate in nuggets, and if you have sweet tooth add  2 spoons of honey.

Preparation

  1. In a bowl crush the bananas well with a fork
  2. Add the grated lemon peel
  3. Gradually incorporate the oat flakes, mixing well. if you see that the texture and too soft (depends on the size of the bananas) add a little more oats.
  4. Add the optional ingredients by mixing them well.
  5. With your hands make small balls: scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll into a 1-inch ball. Repeat with the rest of the mixture.
  6. Line a baking tray with baking paper,  and place the ballon  1 to 2 centimetre apart.  
  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes. Balls should be slightly golden on the surface and hardened to the touch.
  8. Let them cool and enjoy them. 

Notes

Today I tried to prepare them with half squeezed orange and about ten dates cut into small pieces into the mixture of banana and oat: amazing!
