Coffee Energy Balls

This recipe is adapted from Clean Eats and Treats and makes 12 energy balls. I’m not one for coffee, but I love these! The coffee grounds give it a nice little crunch, and it feels more like eating a dessert rather than a healthy snack.

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cup old fashioned oats slightly broken down in the blender

• 1 cup all natural creamy peanut butter

• 1/2 cup raw honey or agave

• 1 scoop chocolate protein powder

• 2 tbsp cocoa powder or cacao powder

• 2-3 tbsp finely coffee grounds

• Optional: 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Combine all dry ingredients in bowl and mix until ingredients are well blended.

2. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

3. Form dough into balls and set them on a parchment lined cookie sheet or storage container.

4. Refrigerated for up to one week.
