I also found out that you can use them as a gift (if you give them a nice wrap) or even a bribe You’ll see… Once you let someone taste your balls, you will never be forgotten. You will need 1 cup of oats. Ground the oats into an oatmeal/oatflower. Mix the oatmeal with 2 cups of almond meal. Add 3 full teaspoons of baking powder. Mix it well and add about 4 tblsp of honey.

Add the mashed carrots into the mixture in the bowl and mix it all well together to create a dough for the balls.
