1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, then use your hands to roll the mixture into 12 even-sized balls. Press each ball onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and allow to cool before eating.
