Really keto energy balls recipe with chocolate chips and hidden flax seeds and healthy. Kids and adults love these no bake energy balls.
I remember making a version of these in High School for a bake sale and although this energy ball recipe technically required no baking at all they were a hit. There are of course several versions of what you can include and/or omit to make these energy balls but at the end of the day it starts out with a few simple ingredients.
Keto energy balls
I love goodies that stick with you, that my kids love, and don’t require an oven. Especially during the Summer that’s the last thing I want to turn on.
- Energy bites are great as a snack before or after a soccer game, when you’re back from the gym, or just as a snack. You can “hide” good things for you inside too like flax seeds and your kids will never know! 😉
The ingredients are as follows. Now keep in mind if you’d rather leave out the flax seeds or just don’t chocolate chips in them just adjust accordingly.

- 2/3 cups peanut butter more or less depending on your preference

- 1.5 c chopped almonds

They are really quite easy to throw together and adults and kids love the taste. Keep them in the fridge to snack on throughout the week too.

You had me at no bake! These are the perfect pick me up snacks to have in the middle of the day! Easy to make and so tasty. Love!

These are so good! Such a yummy snack!
These balls don’t stick no matter that I followed the recipe exactly. I even tried adding a bit more honey, but still not sticking.
Now what?
