Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 2 Tbsp cacao or cocoa powder, divided

Equipment

  • Food processor or blender

Method
 

  1. Place all ingredients except for 1 Tbsp of the cacao or cocoa powder, into the bowl of a food processor. Place the other 1 Tbsp cacao or cocoa powder into a small bowl and set aside.
  2. Process the ingredients in the food processor until everything begins to come together, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Don't over process the mixture as you want the mixture to be a little bit chunky.
  3. If the mixture is a bit too dry to hold together, add 1/2 Tbsp warm water to the mixture and process again.
  4. Roll the mixture into 8-10 uniform sized balls. Roll each ball in the additional 1 Tbsp of cacao or cocoa powder so that each ball is covered. Set the balls in the refrigerator to set up for about 30 minutes.
  5. Store covered in the refrigerator for about a week.
