Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Almond butter
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (dairy-free)
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to mix the dry ingredients evenly.
Step 2
In a separate, smaller bowl, mix together the almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Use a spatula to mix everything until the oat mixture is fully coated and sticky.
Step 4
Fold in the dark chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 5
Using a tablespoon, scoop out small amounts of the mixture and roll them into balls with your hands. Each ball should be about one inch in diameter.
Step 6
Place the oat balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are evenly spaced out.
Step 7
Refrigerate the oat balls for at least 30 minutes to allow them to set and firm up.
Step 8
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze them for up to three months.
