Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup old fashioned rolled oats ((jumbo rolled oats))
1/4 cup instant oats
1/2 cup ground flaxseeds ((milled flax))
1/2 cup smooth natural peanut butter ((see notes))
1/3 cup honey
1 teaspoon quality vanilla extract
1/4 teaspon salt ((if using an unsalted peanut butter))
2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips
2 tablespoons crushed banana chips
2 tablespoons finely chopped dried apple slices
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut ((desiccated coconut, or finely crushed toasted coconut flakes also work))

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine everything together using a spatula. It should all come together and form a sticky but slightly crumbly batter. If the mixture is too dry, add a bit more peanut butter and honey. If the mixture is too sticky, add a bit more oats. See notes.
  • Divide the batter into 4 medium bowls. If you have a scale, each bowl should weigh 95 grams, but it's fine to just estimate. You can also make these Oatmeal Energy Balls with one mix-in. Skip this step, and make sure you adjust the mix-in recipe accordingly.
  • For each bowl, add in the mix-in of choice, and mix until everything is well combined.
  • Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes. This will make it easier to press into balls.
  • Press and roll the batter into roughly 1-inch balls. You should be able to make 6 Oatmeal Energy Balls with each mix-in. Enjoy immediately, and store any leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator.

BREAKFAST ENERGY BALLS



Breakfast Energy Balls image

My favourite breakfast, especially before training. You can make them in advance really quickly, and the recipe can be doubled or tripled if your appliances permit it. It's portable, on the go, and contains cocoa for added energy (can be replaced with carob if you don't want it). They freeze and thaw well if you make a lot (or you can eat them cold!), and keeping them in the fridge gives an excellent texture. Vary the ingredients depending on what you have on hand or what suits your tastes. Enjoy!

Time 10m

Yield 16 balls, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 ounces nuts, ground (use a spice or coffee grinder)
4 ounces dried fruit, torn to be no larger than raisins
2 tablespoons cocoa powder (use carob for caffeine-free balls)

Steps:

  • Note : at step 2 you can add a couple drops of vanilla extract (or any other aroma), and/or a couple dashes of cinnamon and/or other spices to vary the taste. Btw you can really use whatever nuts/seeds and dried fruit you want! I like pumpkin seeds and coconut with apricot and cranberries.
  • Place all ingredients in a blender for 2 minutes, or until it starts to form clumps and pieces of fruit are barely visible.
  • Transfer the mixture to a bowl, and work it with your hands to see if it sticks together when pressed hard. If not, add water, a couple drops at a time, until it does.
  • Form into 16 half-ounce balls. You can store them on top of eachother in a container, they won't stick together and won't loose their shape if you carry them. I recommend refrigerating them overnight to let the flavours blend a little and the texture set.
