Ingredients

Servings

ENERGY BALL BASE:

  • 1 ¼ cups  rolled oats you can also swap quick oats or a blend of half quick, half old fashioned, old fashioned
  • 2 tablespoons "power mix-ins" chia seeds, flaxseeds, hemp seeds, or additional rolled oats
  • ½ cup nut butter peanut butter is my go-to, of choice
  • cup liquid sweetener honey or maple syrup, sticky, of choice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup mix-ins see below for flavor options

CLASSIC CHOCOLATE CHIP:

  • nut butter honey, 1/2 cup chocolate chips, any

TRAIL MIX:

  • peanut butter honey, 3 tablespoons chocolate chips, 3 tablespoons chopped peanuts, 2 tablespoons raisins

WHITE CHOCOLATE CRANBERRY:

  • almond butter or cashew butter, honey, 1/4 cup dried cranberries, 1/4 cup white chocolate chips

ALMOND JOY:

  • coconut flakes almond butter, any sweetener, 1/4 cup chocolate chips, 1/4 cup chopped almonds, unsweetened, replace 1/2 cup oatmeal

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE:

  • nut butter any sweetener, 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips, ADD 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, any

OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIE:

  • almond butter or cashew butter, maple syrup, 1/2 cup raisins, ADD 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Place all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl: oats, power mix-ins, nut butter, sweetener, vanilla extract, salt, mix-ins, and any other spices you'd like to add. Stir to combine.
  2. If the mixture seems too wet, add a bit more oats. If it's too dry, add a bit more nut butter. It should resemble a somewhat sticky dough that holds together when lightly squeezed.
  3. Place the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set (this will make the balls easier to roll later on).
  4. Remove the bowl from the refrigerator and portion the dough into balls of desired size. (I use a cookie scoop to make mine approximately 1 inch in diameter).
  5. Enjoy right away or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze for up to 3 months.

Notes

  • Store leftover energy balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • For nut allergies: In place of the almond or peanut butter, try sunflower seed butter.
