Ingredients
ENERGY BALL BASE:
- 1 ¼ cups old fashioned rolled oats you can also swap quick oats or a blend of half quick, half old fashioned
- 2 tablespoons "power mix-ins" chia seeds, flaxseeds, hemp seeds, or additional rolled oats
- ½ cup nut butter of choice peanut butter is my go-to
- ⅓ cup sticky liquid sweetener of choice honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup mix-ins see below for flavor options
CLASSIC CHOCOLATE CHIP:
- Any nut butter honey, 1/2 cup chocolate chips
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:
- Replace 1/2 cup of the oatmeal with 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes almond butter, any sweetener, 1/4 cup chocolate chips, 1/4 cup chopped almonds
DOUBLE CHOCOLATE:
- Any nut butter any sweetener, 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips, ADD 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIE:
- almond butter or cashew butter, maple syrup, 1/2 cup raisins, ADD 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- 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.
- 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.
- Place the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set (this will make the balls easier to roll later on).
- 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).
- 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.
