Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make No-Bake Energy Balls with Nuts and Seeds.
Step 1
To start your delicious energy ball adventure, grab your food processor and pulse the rolled oats until they resemble a coarse meal.
Step 2
Next, toss in the pumpkin seeds, walnuts, and pecans, and give it a quick pulse 10 to 15 times until the nuts are chopped to your liking.
Step 3
Now, add the pitted Medjool dates to the mix and blend for about 30 seconds, ensuring everything is well combined.
Step 4
As the processor runs, slowly pour in the brown rice syrup, mixing until the mixture begins to clump together beautifully.
Step 5
Once you have that perfect consistency, transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
Step 6
Here’s where the fun begins—fold in the mini chocolate chips, shredded coconut, raisins, and sunflower seeds, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 7
Now, using your hands, take small portions of the mixture, about the size of a golf ball, and roll them into delightful little balls.
Step 8
Place these energy bites in a single layer on a cookie sheet, allowing them to touch but not stack.
Step 9
Finally, pop the cookie sheet into the refrigerator and let those energy balls chill for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours if you can wait that long.
Step 10
This will help them firm up perfectly, making them ready for snacking whenever you need a boost of energy.
Step 11
Enjoy your homemade treats!.
