Six Simple Ingredients for Delicious and Nutritious Energy Balls
For this recipe, you’ll need:

- 1 cup of dates, soaked in water
- 1/3 cup of old-fashioned oats
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Step-by-Step Instructions for Making Perfect Chocolate Cranberry Walnut Energy Balls
Step 1: Pit the dates
The first step in this recipe is to pit the dates. If the dates are not pitted, the food processor will not be able to grind them into a smooth consistency.
Step 2: Grind the Ingredients walnuts, cranberries, and chocolate chips
Next, we’ll use a food processor to grind the walnuts, cranberries, and chocolate chips into smaller pieces.
Step 3: Grind the dates
Set this mixture aside for now and use the food processor to grind just the dates.
Step 4: Combine All Ingredients
Add all of the ingredients into the food processor and grind them all together, forming the dough.
Step 5: Roll into Balls
The final step is to roll the dough into small balls. I like mine to be slightly smaller than golf balls.
