No-Bake Holiday Energy Balls
Ingredients
-
1 1/4 cups rolled oats
-
2 tablespoons chia seeds, flaxseeds, sunflower seeds
-
1/2 cup nut butter of choice — peanut butter, almond, etc.
-
1/3 cup sticky liquid sweetener of choice — honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Unsweetened coconut flakes
Instructions
-
Place all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl: oats, seeds, nut butter, sweetener, vanilla extract, salt, chocolate chips, and cinnamon (or 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.
-
Top with unsweetened coconut flakes and enjoy!
