Directions

Equipment Needed 

mixing bowl

rubber spatula

fridge

Add your nut butter, maple syrup, and extracts to a medium bowl and stir them together really well with a rubber spatula. (If your nut butter isn't naturally runny, you may want to warm it up in the microwave to make stirring it together easier).

Add the oats, almond flour, and hemp seeds to the bowl and mix together until you can no longer see the dry almond flour and everything is fully combined.

Stir in your chocolate baking chips.

Divide the batter into ~20 balls (you can use a cookie dough scoop to do this) and enjoy!

Store in the refrigerator in an air tight container to help them last longer.
