How’s that for a title that is bigger than the food itself? About two weeks ago I posted my first energy ball recipe (a Peanut Butter Cup recipe– it’s delicious!), and this is just a fun variation of that one. Again, no need to exactly measure out these quantities- I just eye ball them (but I’ll give you a rough estimate for each of the amounts).
Ingredients
- 1 cup dry oatmeal
- 2/3 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup honey (plus about 2 tablespoons)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons of cinnamon
- 1/5-2 tablespoons of chia seeds
- 1/4-1/3 cup chocolate protein powder
I tossed everything into the bowl all at once and mixed it thoroughly together, and then put the bowl in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. When I took it out, I just rolled the dough into individual balls.
Delicious looking, right? For all of you flower folks out there- that’s a verbena in the pot behind the ball.
It’s SO easy, and really only requires 1 bowl and 1 spoon to be washed at the end. You can’t get better than that, can you? I’ve already come up with another 4-5 different flavors of these balls to make, and can’t wait to try them out. I’ll be sharing them all with you as I make them!
So seriously- make these as soon as you possible can! They’re worth it! For more recipes, click here.

I worry my chocolate and PB might not make it into the balls. Those are two of my favorite foods.

Well- that’s the trickiest part in this entire process! Not eating all the PB and chocolate chips before you can put them in the balls! 🙂
