They deliver all the nostalgic taste of cookie dough—sweet, nutty, and indulgent—without the refined sugar or need for an oven. Perfect for busy mornings, pre-workout fuel, or that mid-afternoon energy slump.

The best part? These bites come together in just 10 minutes using wholesome ingredients like oats, nut butter, and a touch of chocolate. They’re naturally sweetened, portable, kid-friendly, and freezer-safe too. Whether you’re meal prepping or just trying to avoid packaged snacks, these cookie-flavored energy balls are a delicious and smart choice.

Ingredients:

1 cup rolled oats
½ cup creamy almond butter (or peanut butter)
¼ cup honey or maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp mini chocolate chips
2 tbsp ground flaxseed or chia seeds (optional for extra nutrition)
¼ tsp cinnamon (for a cookie flavor boost)
Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Mix the Ingredients:

In a medium bowl, combine oats, nut butter, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, flaxseed, cinnamon, and salt.
Stir until everything is evenly mixed and holds together. Add mini chocolate chips and fold them in.

2. Form into Balls:

Use your hands or a small cookie scoop to form the mixture into bite-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
If the mixture is too sticky, refrigerate for 10–15 minutes first, then roll.

3. Chill & Store:

Place the balls on a tray or plate lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to firm up, then transfer to an airtight container.
Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 2 months.

Flavor Tips & Variations:

Add 1 tbsp cocoa powder for a chocolate cookie version.
Use crushed graham crackers or oats ground into flour for a smoother “cookie dough” texture.
Stir in shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or protein powder for extra nutrition.
