I typically make a batch of energy balls most weeks. We love them for a mid-morning snack or a sweet treat. This energy balls recipe is kind of a combo of 3 different recipes I have tried added in a few parts of each. Obviously these would be a healthier option without the mini m&m’s, I add those in for my kids but I frequently make with just mini chocolate chips as well. Play around and add in what you love! We keep these stored in the fridge for a quick nibble on the go!
