No Bake Energy Balls (Oatmeal Chocolate Chip)
Description
The mixture is prepared by stirring together oats, shredded coconut, ground flaxseed, almond butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and chocolate chips into a sticky dough. The mixture is then scooped and rolled into balls. If the dough feels too dry, more honey can be added; if too sticky, chilling it helps firm it up. The balls are refrigerated to maintain shape and firmness before serving.
These energy balls offer a convenient snack option, combining the chewiness of oats and coconut with the smoothness of almond butter and occasional chocolate chips. They do not require baking, making them simple to assemble with pantry staples.
The balls can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge or at room temperature for up to two weeks. For longer storage, freezing is possible, with parchment or wax paper separating individual balls to prevent sticking.

Instructions
