Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or your choice of dairy-free yogurt)

1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen; options include strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to your preferred level of sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup chopped nuts or seeds (optional, for added crunch)

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Berry Mixture:

    - If using fresh berries, thoroughly wash them and chop into bite-sized pieces.

      - For frozen berries, remove them from the freezer and let them thaw for about 10-15 minutes until slightly softened.

        Mix the Oats and Yogurt:

          - In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats with the Greek yogurt.

            - Stir the mixture well until all the oats are thoroughly coated in yogurt, ensuring an even consistency.

              Add Flavors:

                - To the oat and yogurt mixture, add the honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

                  - Mix these ingredients until fully combined. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness, adding more honey or syrup if desired.

                    Fold in the Berries:

                      - Gently fold in the prepared mixed berries and chopped nuts or seeds, if using.

                        - Take care not to overmix; this preserves the texture and shape of the berries.

                          Scoop and Shape:

                            - Using a cookie scoop or your hands, take portions of the mixture and shape them into small balls, approximately the size of a tablespoon.

                              Freeze the Bombs:

                                - Arrange the shaped oatmeal berry balls on a lined baking sheet with parchment paper, ensuring they are spaced apart to prevent sticking.

                                  - Place the baking sheet in the freezer and leave the balls to freeze for at least 2-3 hours, or until they are solid.

                                    Store and Serve:

                                      - Once fully frozen, transfer the oatmeal berry bombs to an airtight container or a zip-top bag.

                                        - To avoid sticking, layer the bombs with parchment paper.

                                          - Store in the freezer for up to a month. Enjoy them straight from the freezer or let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes until they soften slightly before indulging!
