Granola Energy Balls

These tastey little treats are sure to give you the afternoon pick me up you need, without undoing your whole day. 

Granola Energy Balls

Ingredients:

• 2 cups oats
• 2 cups coconut flakes
• 1 cup peanut butter or almond butter
• 1 cup ground flaxseed
• 1 cup chocolate chips (I used dark chocolate chips)
• 2/3 cup honey 
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon 

To Make:

1. Mix all ingredients thoroughly.
2. Roll into bite-size balls.  The size you roll them will determine how many the recipe yields. I rolled mine a little bigger and the recipe made about 2 dozen balls. You could also flatten the mixture out onto a 9x13 pan and cut up as granola bars, if you prefer. 
3. Store in fridge.

You could easily cut this recipe in half, but they stay good in the fridge for about a week, so stock up and snack away! I popped 2 at a time as my afternoon snack last week.
