Nutritious Granola Protein Balls
  1. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Begin by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the mixture from sticking and make it easier to manage and clean up later.

  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium or large mixing bowl, combine your dry ingredients: oats, rice crisps, ground flaxseed, hemp seeds, cinnamon, salt, and mini chocolate chips. Mix them thoroughly to ensure even distribution of flavors and textures.

  3. Add Wet Ingredients: To the bowl of dry ingredients, add the maple syrup, peanut butter, and vanilla extract. Stir everything together until you achieve a sticky and thick 'batter' consistency. Ensure the ingredients are well combined.

  4. Form the Energy Balls: With your hands, shape the mixture into balls, each about the size of a golf ball. The batter will be somewhat sticky, but you should be able to form approximately 18-20 balls.

  5. Chill the Energy Balls: Place the formed balls onto the parchment paper lined baking sheet. Transfer the baking sheet to the fridge and let the balls chill for 20-30 minutes, or until they harden. This step helps them hold their shape better and become easier to handle.

  6. Enjoy: Once the energy balls are set, they’re ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for a quick and easy snack.
