  • 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mix together 1 cup of cottage cheese, 1 cup of rolled oats, and 2 tablespoons of honey thoroughly until the mixture is well blended and sticky enough to hold shape.
  2. Form Balls: Using your hands or a small scoop, roll the mixture into small bite-sized balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter. Make sure they are compact to hold together.
