For chocolate chips that don’t contain sugar, try Lily’s Dark Chocolate Chips. They’re sweetened with natural stevia and have delicious rich flavor.

  1. This is amazing! Bu don’t we need to cook oats or are they instant oats?

      You can use instant or old-fashioned oats. Instant can sometimes help them stick together better, but my family likes the crunchier texture of old-fashioned oats. Maybe start with what you think you’d prefer and try the other another time? Let us know how it goes 🙂
