Let us look at the team players in this no bake chocolate avocado oatmeal balls:
Chocolate chips – I used semi sweet chocolate chips. Got more chocolate chips? Try this popular Chocolate Chip Cookie Mug cake
Oats – Old fashioned oats makes this no bake chocolate oatmeal balls chewy, loaded with fiber and filling. Use gluten free oats to make gluten free energy balls. I love using oats is some amazing overnight oats recipes – Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats / Kulfi Overnight Oats / Black Forest Cake Overnight Oats / Banana Nut Muffin Overnight Oats
Avocado – Loaded with vitamins, minerals and healthy fats, avocado is so great is both sweet and savory recipes. Select ripe avocado and mash smooth before mixing into chocolate. This recipe is a version of these Dark Chocolate Avocado Truffles with additional healthy ingredients.
Coconut – Use sweetened shredded coconut. Unsweetened shredded coconut will compromise the sweetness, so I recommend that you use ONLY sweetened shredded coconut.
Dried cranberries – Sweet, tart, chewy. Raisins can be used instead.
Flavorings – Sea salt and vanilla extract.
How to make no bake chocolate avocado oatmeal balls?
Step-1: Melt chocolate chips in microwave until fully melted and smooth (refer picture above, left).
Step-2: Mix mashed avocado, salt and vanilla extract (refer picture above, middle) until smooth (refer picture above, right).
Step-3: Stir in old fashion oats, sweetened shredded coconut and dried cranberries (refer pictures below). Let mixture cool to thicken, until you are able to roll them into balls. This could take 1-3 hours depending on the temperature in your kitchen. Refrigerate for about 30-60 minutes to speed up the process.
Step-4: Make even sized balls. I made 12 —> perfect bite size. Now, you could choose to leave the balls as is or make it look better and finished (refer picture below)
Step-5 : (optional) Roll the nut free oatmeal balls in your favorite toppings. I used oats, coconut and cocoa powder. Here are few suggestions :
- finely chopped nuts
- cocoa powder
- confectioners sugar
- oats
- shredded coconut
- powdered freeze dried strawberries
