Healthy Oatmeal Peanut Butter Eggs

 “Oatmeal Peanut Butter Eggs are all natural, vegan, vegetarian and make a wonderful snack for all those on a diet! I am a huge fan of recreating festive treats to go with any diet and this one is my favourite. The best part was adding the batter to the plastic eggs and waiting for it to set!”

*Please be aware that whole peanuts, chopped peanuts, and crunchy peanut butter are choking hazards for babies and children.
