Easy Energy Balls (Gluten-Free)

Make a delicious batch of these Easy Energy Balls that are naturally gluten-free too!

One of my favorite go-to snacks that give a boost of protein too is these energy balls. Energy Balls are simple to make and store, plus you can add a variety of add-ins to make them exactly what you prefer!

How do you store Energy Balls?

Energy Balls can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks to keep them fresh. We are usually through them in a week, we like to make a batch on Sunday and have them in the fridge throughout the week.

The main key here is to keep them in an airtight container so that they stay fresh. They have better consistency when cold as well.

Tips for Making Energy Balls:

Easy Energy Balls (Gluten-Free)

These energy balls can be made with a scoop because they are messy to handle when forming them or you can spray your hands with cooking spray, such as PAM. This helps the batter not stick to your hands if you plan to use your hands to form them instead of a scoop.

A variety of mix-ins can be used for these, so you can mix and match a few of the options are M&Ms, chocolate chips, pistachios, cranberries, and many other nut options too.

If you are trying to do these allergy-free, you can use Sunbutter in place of the Peanut Butter too.

Easy Energy Balls (Gluten-Free)

If you are making these gluten-free, be sure to use certified gluten-free oats and as always check your ingredients to be sure they are not cross-contaminated. These are very easy to make naturally gluten-free, but it’s always best to check all ingredients.
