Ingredientes y sustituciones
Solo necesitas 3 ingredientes sencillos para preparar esta receta. Aquí te explicamos cómo elegirlos y sustituirlos.

- Copos de avena tradicionales – These form the base of your energy balls, providing fiber and texture. If you have trouble digesting raw oats, you can roast them first (read the notes in the recipe card).
- Mantequilla de maní – This ingredient binds the balls together and contributes to their rich flavor and protein content. Only use natural peanut butter without added oil or sugar. Sunflower seed butter is a good choice if you need a nut-free option, and almond butter or cashew butter are also fine.
- Jarabe de arce – This adds natural sweetness and helps hold the ingredients together. Agave syrup or coconut nectar also work well.
- Pepitas de chocolate negro sin lácteos – These are an optional addition that provides a delicious crunch and chocolatey flavor. Mini chocolate chips are easier to incorporate into the mixture.

Let me share a few more tips for a perfect energy balls.
- Flavor Swaps – Easily create different energy ball flavors by swapping the chocolate chips for dried raisins, dried cranberries, or chopped walnuts.
- Nut Butter Variations – Change up the taste by using cashew butter or almond butter instead of peanut butter.
- Condiméntalo – Boost the flavors with optional additions like cinnamon, pumpkin pie spices, or vanilla extract.
- Impulso de proteína – For an extra protein kick, I often add about 1/3 cup of high-protein seeds like hemp seeds or additional pumpkin seeds.
- Tiempo de relax – Don’t skip the 10-minute chilling time in the fridge before rolling. This helps the mixture firm up, making the balls much easier to form.
- Fácil de rodar – Spraying a tiny bit of olive oil on your hands before rolling the mixture helps prevent sticking and makes the process smoother.
- Even Portions – Use a tablespoon to scoop the batter. This helps ensure all your energy balls are a similar size, making them look uniform and helping with consistent serving sizes.
- Roasting Oats – If you’re roasting the oats, make sure they cool down completely to room temperature before you mix them in, especially if you’re adding chocolate chips. Warm oats will melt the chocolate.







Made these. Very easy to make and tasty. I will be sharing these with my mother-in-law for a healthy treat and maybe even something she’ll eat when she doesn’t feel like breakfast. She is often low on protein, but I think she will like these.
¡Muchas gracias!
I love these! My little granddaughter and I made them the first time and loved them. They are now a staple so I have a healthy treat when I crave something sweet.
Thank you so much! That’s amazing.
Do you bake these?
No, they are no bake. If I bake something, you will see a baking instruction in the recipe card regarding oven temperature and pan size/preparation. Enjoy!
Do you have a recipe like this using protein powder? Or can I just add protein powder to it , if so, how much?
Sure, I have esta receta using the same ingredients plus protein powder. Enjoy.

Thank you so much for trying my recipes.
Can I omit the maple syrup due to the sugar?
The maple syrup act as a firming agent, they won’t stick together without it. You can use a sugar-free syrup if preferred.
