Adding a little coconut oil to the energy balls helps with shelf life and adds some nutritious fatty acids as well!

Glad you all enjoyed the post! My friend at the office now keeps a jar of Breakfast Balls at her desk. Seems like they’re a hit. Have fun getting domestic.

I am definitely in the market for quick and easy recipes I can make for food that’s healthy and easy to take on-the-go.

Will try and let you know how it goes!

Many thanks for posting this!

Hi Jose!
Great question. The best part about making these at home is that you can make the servings big or small. The Whitewater cookbook suggests 1/4 cup portions but keep in mind, they serve them to people heading up the mountain for a day of adventure. You may want to use a smaller portion if you’re planning on having one before or after a low-impact class.

They all look tasty!How many pieces would you usually consume after a work out or a hot yoga session?

You’re right Krista – they’re definitely not low in calories. That’s why we like to eat them after a hard class or a long run.

As much as these recipes are filled with healthy ingredients, they’re also really high in things like fat and carbs – leading to a “snack” that’s more akin in nutritional value to an entire meal (for some of them). The serving sizes need to be adjusted, and people need to be aware if they’re popping more than one of these, they’re essentially getting their entire days intake of food.

I paddled a 44km fresh water changes outrigger race last summer, and the Whitewater Cooks Energy Balls saw me through to the end. They are amazing, and so easy. I used dried blueberries instead of raisins, and added some cinnamon and cayenne, to give them a bit of pep. Awesome food blog!
