Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups quick rolled oats
- 1/3 cup flax seeds
- 1/3 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup nut butter (peanut, almond, cashew)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1/3 cup raisins
- 1/3 cup vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Place the flax seeds in a food processor. Grind the flax seeds until they start to break up. (They do not have to be fully ground into powder.)
- Add the oats, coconut, nut butter, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and maple syrup. Turn the processor on high and mix until the ingredients form a thick consistent crumble.
- Add in the raisins and chocolate chips. Mix these ingredients in by hand.
- Use a 1 ½ tablespoon cookie scoop to portion out even balls of dough. Roll the dough into tight balls.
- Place the energy balls into an airtight container and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Notes
- Store the balls in an airtight container and keep them in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- To Freeze: I suggest first flash freezing them for 1 hour on a baking sheet. Then transfer all of the energy balls to a freezer-safe zipper bag or other container. Keep in the freezer for up to 3 months, then thaw in the fridge overnight or on the counter for 20-30 minutes
