Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.3333 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Ground flaxseed
- 0.25 cup Mini chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, rolled oats, honey, ground flaxseed, mini chocolate chips, and vanilla extract. Add chia seeds if desired.
Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, mix all the ingredients together until well combined and a thick, sticky dough forms.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Place the ball onto the prepared baking sheet.
Repeat this process until all the mixture is used, forming approximately 12-14 energy balls.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the balls to firm up.
Once chilled, transfer the energy balls to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months for a longer shelf life.
