Blueberry Energy Balls
These blueberry energy balls are a deliciously healthy no-bake treat, combining the vibrant flavors of dried blueberries, nutty almond butter, and crunchy pecans. Packed with nutrition, they are perfect for an energy boost!
Ingredients
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened dried blueberries, divided
- ¾ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- ¾ cup smooth natural almond butter or sunflower seed butter
- ½ cup chopped dried figs
- ½ cup chopped pecans, toasted
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Finely chop 2 tablespoons of the dried blueberries and set them aside.
- In a food processor, combine the remaining 1 cup blueberries, oats, almond butter (or sunflower seed butter), figs, pecans, chia seeds, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Pulse 10 to 20 times, until finely chopped, then process for about 1 minute until the mixture is crumbly but sticky enough to form into balls.
- Using wet hands, scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture at a time and roll into 32 balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring in between until smooth.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the energy balls and sprinkle with the reserved chopped blueberries.
