Snow Balls- Winter Energy Bites

In this house we love our energy balls- I always have some on hand.  Typically I make my favorite ones with chocolate chips- (get the recipe here), but this winter I was inspired to make something a little more festive for the season.  So here's my winter energy bites we're calling snow balls!

1 cup almond butter
1 cup old fashioned oats
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons ground flax seed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (or 2) teaspoons of cinnamon
cacao powder optional (if using I'd recommend 1/4 cup)
1/2 cup coconut

In a bowl, mix all the ingredients except the coconut thoroughly.  Roll into small (1 inch) balls. Put the coconut in a small bowl, and roll the balls in the coconut until they are coated.  I line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and chill them in the fridge for an hour, then I store them in the fridge in a sealed container or freeze some for later.

Happy Winter!! Enjoy!
