Preparation
Step 1
In a food processor, place the oat flour, walnuts, almond butter, dates, vanilla, water, and salt. Pulse until the mixture sticks together when pinched. If it’s too crumbly, pulse in more water, 1 teaspoon at a time.
Step 2
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the chocolate chips. Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop and roll into balls.
Step 3
Store extra energy balls in the fridge. They also freeze well. To thaw, leave them at room temperature until soft.
Step 4

Chef's notes
**Look for creamy almond butter with a smooth consistency to make this recipe, not the dry, stiff stuff that you might find at the bottom of a jar.
*If your dates are hard, soak them in hot water for 10 minutes.
