Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- ½ cup natural peanut butter
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
- 2 Tablespoons ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Place all ingredients in a large bowl and stir together until well combined, ensuring the mixture is uniform in texture.
- Chill Mixture: Transfer the mixture to the refrigerator and let it chill for 30 minutes. This helps the mixture firm up, making it easier to shape into balls.
- Form Energy Balls: Remove the chilled mixture from the fridge and roll it into balls, using about 1 Tablespoon of mixture per ball.
- Store Properly: Store the energy balls in a covered container in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain freshness and firmness until ready to eat.
Notes
- For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.
- You can add a scoop of protein powder for an extra protein boost.
- Energy balls can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week or frozen for up to three months.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey according to your taste preferences.
