They are a snack by many names – energy balls, bliss balls, bites, truffles, the list goes on! To me, they’re the easiest no-bake treat that even the kids love to help whip together.
In this roundup, you’ll find chocolatey energy balls, nut butter energy balls, seasonal energy balls, there’s something for everyone!
What I love about energy balls:
They are so easy to customize! For the most part, you can really customize these energy balls! Fold in some dried fruit, your favorite chopped nuts or seeds, and chocolate chips if you like!
You can also switch up the nut butter. You can sub in any nut or seed butter that works for you! In some of these recipes I use butter, but you can sub 1:1 for your favorite nut or seed butter if you prefer. Its a super flexible kind of recipe, I know you’re going to love them!
