Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

½ cup creamy almond butter (or any nut butter of your choice)

½ cup honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

¼ cup ground flaxseed

¼ cup mini dark chocolate chips (or cacao nibs)

¼ cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

¼ cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans, optional)

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond butter, honey or maple syrup, ground flaxseed, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until everything is well combined into a thick, sticky mixture.

    Add the Fun Extras: Gently fold in the mini dark chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and chopped nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

      Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. This step makes the mixture easier to handle.

        Form the Balls: Once chilled, use your hands to roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If the mixture is too sticky, moisten your hands with a little water or oil.

          Coat (Optional): If you desire, roll the balls in additional shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or cocoa powder for an extra layer of flavor and texture.

            Store: Place the energy balls in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze them for longer storage.

              Enjoy: Grab a ball whenever you need a quick and nutritious energy boost!
