Ingredients

⅓ cup Oat old fashioned lightly toasted
⅓ cup Peanuts whole lightly toasted
2 Tbsp Flaxseeds freshly grounded
⅓ cup Date paste
2 Tbsp Water
1 Tbsp Peanut butter
6 squares Dar chocolate (80% chocolate)

Instructions

Lightly toast the old fashioned oat and peanuts in the oven at 180°C for 5 min. Set aside 4 peanuts, we'll add them chopped to the melted chocolate to coat the energy balls. Then grind them to a meal consistency.
In a food processor add: oats, peanut meal, flaxseed meal, date paste and 2 Tbsp water. Pulse blend to obtain a homogenous dough (you can use your hands as well).
Melt the dark chocolate in a bain-marie. Let's shape the energy balls in the meanwhile.
Wet your hand then shape 12 equal balls and flatten the center (to form a hole) as seen in picture. Fill each one with 1/2 tsp of peanut butter. Fold up the edges sealing the peanut butter in the center then roll between your hands to form a ball.
Finely chope the toasted peanuts we put aside earlier then mix them with the melted dark chocolate.
Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, place in a plate covered with baking sheet and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes or until the chocolate have solidified.
Keep the balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve or store up to 7 days.
