Cherry Almond Energy Balls
no-bake energy bites, no-bake cookie
Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Scooper
Ingredients
- 2 c Flaxmeal
- 1 c Creamy almond butter
- ½ c Dried cherries
- ½ c Unsweetened coconut flakes
- ¼ c Honey sub maple syrup to make vegan
- ¼ c Mini chocolate chips
- 1 t Cinnamon
- 1 t Vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl. Mix until everything is evenly distributed. If you need to loosen up the batter so that it's easier to mix, add a few splashes of warm water.
- Scoop out a few tablespoons of batter with your hands. Roll it into a ball. Place on a plate. Repeat with the rest of the batter. You should get about 18 to 20 balls.
- Enjoy the balls right away!
Notes
- Use almond butter that has a runny consistency for best results. Almond butter that is too thick may need a few splashes of water to the batter to get it to loosen up.
- To freeze energy balls, place them in a single layer in a freezer bag or in a container in layers separated by wax or parchment paper. Seal well, label, and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge before eating or just enjoy straight from the freezer.
