These snacks, which you can also make with peanut butter for those without allergies, are fun for little hands to shape and roll. They are full of protein, fiber, calcium and other nutrients.  These disappear quickly -- and tend to make kids thirsty!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural almond butter (I use Trader Joe’s)
  • 1 cup dry milk powder
  • ½ cup honey
  • 5 graham crackers, crushed into fine crumbs in a resealable plastic bag
  • ½ -1 cup wheat germ

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the almond butter, dry milk, honey, and cracker crumbs with a wooden spoon or very clean hands.
  2. Form the mixture into balls the size of large marbles. Roll in the wheat germ.
  3. Store in an airtight container.
