Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned or quick-cooking)
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (or any nut butter of your choice: almond, cashew, sunflower seed butter)
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup for vegan option
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips dark, milk, or white
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional additions
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
  • 2 tablespoons dried cranberries
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder

Equipment

  • Medium-sized mixing bowl
  • Spoon or Spatula
  • Plate or Baking Sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Refrigerator

Method
 

  1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, peanut butter, and honey or maple syrup. Stir these ingredients together until they are well combined and form a thick, sticky mixture.
    1 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned or quick-cooking), 1/2 cup peanut butter (or any nut butter of your choice: almond, cashew, sunflower seed butter), 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  2. Add the ground flaxseed, mini chocolate chips, and vanilla extract to the bowl. If you're using any additional optional ingredients like chia seeds, shredded coconut, dried cranberries, or cocoa powder, this is the time to mix them in as well.
    1/4 cup ground flaxseed, 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons chia seeds, 1/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut, 2 tablespoons dried cranberries, 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  3. Stir all the ingredients together with a spoon or spatula until everything is evenly distributed. The mixture should be cohesive and easy to roll into balls. If the mixture seems too dry and crumbly, add another teaspoon of nut butter or honey/maple syrup. If it’s too sticky, add a tablespoon more oats or flaxseed.
  4. Take about one tablespoon of the mixture at a time and roll it between your palms to form a compact ball. Continue this process until all the mixture has been used.
  5. Place the formed energy balls on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Transfer the plate to the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the balls to firm up. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect texture.
