Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, ground flaxseed, and cinnamon. Stir to evenly distribute the spices throughout the dry ingredients.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Add almond butter, honey, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Use a spatula or your hands to mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated and form a slightly sticky dough-like consistency.
  3. Form Balls: Using your hands, roll the mixture into small, bite-sized balls about 1 inch in diameter. This should make approximately 12-15 energy balls depending on size.
  4. Chill to Set: Place the formed energy balls on a baking sheet or tray lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up before serving.
  5. Store: Keep the energy balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

  • For a nuttier flavor, lightly toast the rolled oats before mixing.
  • If the mixture is too dry, add a teaspoon of water or more almond butter for better binding.
  • These energy balls can be customized by adding mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts if desired.
  • Perfect as a pre-workout snack or midday energy boost.
