Ingredients

Instructions

  • Prepare a small baking sheet with parchment paper or any flat plate.
  • In a food processor combine oats, hempseeds, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, flaxmeal, maple syrup, vanilla extract and dates. Grind/blend it until a dough like texture is formed. The batter should be sticky so it sticks to each other. Pause at intervals to scrape from all sides with a flat spatula.
  • Remove the blade and divide the dough into 10 equal parts or scoop with the help of medium sized cookie scoop. Make 10 round balls and place them on the baking sheet at ¼ inch gap between each and refrigerate for 5 minutes so that the balls are firm.
  • In the meanwhile, combine chocolate chips in a microwavable bowl and melt at high for 30 seconds. Pause and whip it to check it consistency. If needed microwave again for 15 seconds.  Stir it vigorously to make sure it can be drizzled.
  • Take out the baking sheet from the refrigerator and place it on a working counter. Drizzle the melted chocolate with a small spoon over each ball generously. Place the baking sheet again in the refrigerator for 10 minutes or until chocolate hardens a bit.
  • Enjoy right away or store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for about 1 month.

Notes

  • You may have to be little quick in making the balls because the dough may start to dry up and stick in your hands. 
  • Make sure that chocolate chips are melted enough to be drizzled. It should be pouring consistency and not thick. 
  • Chocolate drizzling is optional. If you chose to skip chocolate the calories will be 148 kcal and the rest of the nutritional value will remain the same.
