Looking for a fun snack nutritious snack that your toddler can make? Look no farther than a no-bake cookie!
This is a great snack for the toddler set. They will love that they can make it themselves and choose different ingredients to put in it.
The only hitch is that it needs to stay in the refrigerator for a few hours so that the oats soften. My kids have it for breakfast most mornings. We make it the night before, and we call it our “breakfast cookie”.
Ingredients
- 1 small plate
- 1/3 cup oats
- 1 1/2 teaspoons nut butter
- 1/8 cup milk (soy milk, almond milk, etc.)
- 1 teaspoon raisins
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
Method
Mix all ingredients in a small bowl with your hands (kids will love this!). Mush onto plate, wrap with plastic wrap, and place in refrigerator for 2 hours or overnight.
