Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 0.5 cup crushed nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans)
- 0.5 cup natural peanut butter or almond butter
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 10 drops liquid stevia
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, combine almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, chia seeds, and sea salt.
Step 2
Add in the crushed nuts and sugar-free chocolate chips, mixing well to ensure an even distribution.
Step 3
In a separate small bowl, mix together the natural peanut butter (or almond butter), melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and liquid stevia.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until a dough forms. The mixture should be sticky enough to hold together when compressed.
Step 5
Using your hands, scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a ball. Repeat this process until all the mixture is used up.
Step 6
Place the formed balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 7
Refrigerate the energy balls for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Step 8
Once set, transfer the energy balls to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
