Ingredients

2 cups gluten free oats
2/3 cup flax meal
1 cup sunflower seed butter
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Heaping 1/4 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

Place the oats, flax meal, and salt in a medium sized bowl. Stir to combine. Add the seed butter, maple syrup, and vanilla and stir to combine. Stir in the chocolate chips. This mixture should form a dough that's easy to form into balls that stick together. If the mixture seems too dry, add a splash more maple syrup.
Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, roll the dough into balls. Transfer to a small storage container and keep in the refrigerator.
