Oatmeal balls for Breastfeeding 🤱🏻

Today I made these oatmeal balls for a quick easy snack. I eyeballed everything just to get the right consistency! I used:

• Around 2 cups of oats

• 6-8 Tablespoons of Peanut Butter

• 2 Tablespoons of Honey

• 1/4 Teaspoon Vanilla

• 1 Teaspoon Cinnamon

Other things you could add 👇🏼

-Splash of Almond milk to make the oats less “dry”

-Chocolate Chips

-Cocoa

-Flax Seed

-Chia Seeds

Things like these are helpful to keep around when I get super busy and need something quick to grab. Especially while breastfeeding I get SO hungry. So I needed something with carbs & protein. ❤️

Breastfeeding can make you feel incredibly hungry, and having healthy snacks on hand is essential. Oatmeal balls provide the right mix of carbohydrates and protein to keep you fueled throughout the day. To make these oatmeal balls, combine oats, peanut butter, honey, vanilla, and cinnamon in a bowl. For added nutrition, consider incorporating flax seeds or chia seeds, which are both rich in omega-3 fatty acids, beneficial for both mom and baby. If you crave a bit of sweetness, feel free to add dark chocolate chips or cocoa powder. Moreover, these snacks can be easily stored in the refrigerator, allowing you to grab one quickly when hunger strikes. Not only are they nutritious, but they are also easy to prepare, making them a perfect choice for busy lifestyles. Enjoy your homemade oatmeal balls as a treat that supports your breastfeeding journey!
