Step 2
Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated. Using clean hands or a spoon, scoop out small portions and roll them into bite-sized balls. If the mixture feels too dry, add a little more nut butter; if too sticky, add a sprinkle of oats.
Step 3
Once the mixture is rolled and placed on a tray. Place the energy balls in the fridge for 15–20 minutes to firm up. Store in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy throughout the week.
