Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
- Extra shredded coconut for rolling (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt. Mix everything until well combined.
- If you’re adding chocolate chips, fold them in now. You can also mix in any other ingredients you might like, such as chia seeds or dried fruit.
- Once everything is mixed, refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes. This helps it firm up, making it easier to roll.
- After chilling, scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. If you’d like, roll the balls in extra shredded coconut for a nice finish.
- Place the energy balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and repeat until all the mixture is used.
- Store the energy balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for up to three months.
