Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, pulse the rolled oats, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and shredded coconut until finely ground. Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl.

  2. Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, sunflower seed butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the bowl with the dry ingredients.

  3. Mix everything together until well combined and a sticky dough forms. If the mixture seems too dry, you can add a little more sunflower seed butter or maple syrup.

  4. Once the dough is ready, start shaping it into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If desired, you can roll the balls in extra shredded coconut or cocoa powder for a fun finishing touch.

  5. Place the energy balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up.

  6. Once the energy balls have set, they are ready to enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
