Gluten, Dairy, and Sugar Free Nut Butter Balls


Shout out to my friend Wendy Musarella for giving me this recipe a while ago, even before we had to eat gluten, dairy, and sugar free. 

Now I make these nut butter balls once every one or two weeks, so we usually have some on hand for snacks. 

Ingredients-

1 cup of rolled oats

2/3 cup of shredded coconut flakes

1/2 cup any nut butter (I have used cashew, peanut, sunflower, and almond.) 

1/2 chocolate chips or chunks (I use a sugar free dark chocolate bar and chop it up)

1/3 cup agave nectar or honey

1 Tbsp. chia seeds

1 tsp. vanilla

1 tsp. pink sea salt

I mix everything together using my Kitchen Aid mixer with a coated flat beater attachment. Then I use a small thumb press scooper to shape the balls. Note: I actually use the same scooper to make smaller and larger balls so that we have a choice for a smaller or larger snack. I line a plastic container with wax paper and cover it with an air tight lid and store this in our fridge.
