Ingredients
Energy Balls 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: In a food processor, blend the pitted dates until they form a smooth paste, which acts as a natural sweetener and binder.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the rolled oats, almond butter, honey or maple syrup, turmeric powder, ginger powder, and chia seeds to the processor.
- Pulse Mixture: Pulse the mixture until all ingredients are well combined and form a slightly sticky dough.
- Adjust Consistency: If the mixture feels too dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water gradually to help bind the ingredients together.
- Form Balls: Scoop the mixture and roll into small, bite-sized balls using your hands.
- Chill: Place the energy balls in the refrigerator and chill for 20 to 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Notes
- Add coconut flakes for extra texture and flavor.
