Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (180g) Old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup (125g) Creamy natural peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) Raw honey
  • 1/2 cup (85g) Semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup (60g) Ground flaxseed
  • 1 tsp (5ml) Pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp Sea salt

Instructions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Whisk together until a smooth, uniform paste forms.
  2. Fold in the rolled oats and ground flaxseed using a sturdy spatula or wooden spoon. Stir vigorously until every oat flake is thoroughly coated in the binder.
  3. Fold in the mini chocolate chips once the mixture is uniform. If the mixture is too warm from the nut butter, wait 2 minutes before adding chips to prevent melting.
  4. Using a small cookie scoop (1-tablespoon size), portion the dough and roll between your palms into tight spheres.
  5. Place the energy balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the oats to hydrate and the texture to firm up.
