Ingredients
The following ingredients have 20 Servings
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup peanut butter
- 1 cup Medjool dates ((about 10 dates with pits removed) (substitute 1/4 cup agave nectar))
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ cup coconut flakes
- ½ cup ground flaxseed ((see notes))
- ⅓ cup dairy-free chocolate chips
Instruction
- Place the oats and pitted dates in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine.
- Add the remaining ingredients except for the chocolate chips and pulse for a few seconds. Use a spatula to push down the ingredients and pulse again until the ingredients are combined. Test the batter. It should stick together between your fingers. If not, add another date or two and pulse to combine.
- Add the chocolate chips and pulse in short bursts until combined. Reserve a few chocolate chips to roll the finished energy balls to make them look irresistible.
- Roll the dough into bite-size balls, roll in reserved chocolate chips, and then store in the fridge. Allow the energy balls some time to chill in the fridge for about 5 to 10 minutes before serving to allow them to firm up or eat them in their ooey-gooey room temperature state.
