Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup dates (pitted)
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/2 tsp ginger powder
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1–2 tbsp water (as needed)
Instructions
- Blend Dates: Place the pitted dates in a food processor and blend them until they become smooth and sticky, which will help bind the mixture together.
- Add Dry and Wet Ingredients: Add rolled oats, almond butter, honey or maple syrup, turmeric powder, ginger powder, and chia seeds to the food processor with the dates.
- Combine Ingredients: Pulse the mixture several times until all ingredients are evenly combined into a thick dough-like consistency.
- Adjust Moisture: If the mixture feels too dry and crumbly, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water gradually and pulse again until the perfect consistency is reached for rolling.
- Form Balls: Using your hands, scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls.
- Chill: Place the energy balls on a tray or plate and refrigerate for 20–30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Notes
- Add shredded coconut flakes to the mixture or roll the balls in coconut flakes for extra texture and flavor.
- Store the energy balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week for optimal freshness.
