What You Need for Perfect Energy Balls

- Honey โ Naturally sweetens and binds each ball.
- Vanilla extract โ Adds warmth and depth to every bite.
Quick Steps for Making Energy Balls
Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and stir until fully blended. Chill the mixture for at least 30 minutes to make rolling easier.
Once chilled, shape into about 20 evenly sized balls. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator to enjoy all week long.

Energy Balls Tips & Tasty Twists
Use unsweetened coconut to control the sweetness while adding texture. If you want a different flavor, swap peanut butter with almond butter or cashew butter for a unique twist. Add a sprinkle of chia seeds for extra fiber or replace chocolate chips with dried cranberries for a fruity touch.
If you prefer a touch of crunch, toast the coconut flakes beforehand. For extra indulgence, roll the finished balls in cocoa powder or finely chopped nuts to elevate their look and taste.
Keeping Your Energy Balls Fresh
Store these Energy Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. For longer storage, freeze them on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Thaw at room temperature for a few minutes whenever you need a quick, wholesome snack on the go.
