You’ll love keeping a stash of low carb keto energy balls around… they are one of my favorite low carb sweet snacks for the ketogenic diet. They’ll fill you up and also satisfy your sweet tooth! Plus, these keto bites are made with simple and nutritious ingredients, and the best flavor combination… peanut butter and chocolate! If you don’t need low carb, try my bliss balls instead.

If you love this combo as much as I do, give my chocolate peanut butter smoothie, chocolate peanut butter fat bombs, or chocolate chip peanut butter protein cookies a try.

Most energy balls are sweetened with dried fruit, honey, or maple syrup, and use oats as a primary ingredient. This keto version is sweetened with Wholesome Yum Keto Maple Syrup and uses a nut and nut butter blend for a similar texture to traditional oat ones.The syrup helps the balls stick together, but also adds great maple flavor and sweetness… with only 2g net carbs and 20 calories per serving!

Low Carb Energy Balls FAQs

Are energy balls low carb?

Most energy balls are made with high-carb ingredients like oats, dried fruit, and honey or maple syrup, so would not be low carb or keto friendly.

These low carb no bake energy balls are made with keto friendly ingredients like almonds, coconut, flaxseed, peanut butter, keto maple syrup, and sugar-free dark chocolate chips.

Are these peanut butter energy balls keto?

Yes, the carb counts in energy bites will vary recipe to recipe, but because we are using lower-carb ingredients in this recipe, they are just 1.7 grams net carbs each.

Can I make them nut-free?

Yes. If you have an allergy to tree nuts, you can swap the almonds with sunflower seeds and swap the peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.

Can I use something else instead of the maple syrup?

This recipe uses Wholesome Yum Keto Maple Syrup to sweeten and bind the energy balls. Other sugar-free maple syrup brands should work if they have the same thick consistency, but this is the only one that has a real maple syrup taste and natural ingredients.

You can also try using this sugar-free maple syrup recipe, but I haven’t tested it to confirm if it works as well.

Don’t use regular maple syrup, as that would be high in sugar.

If you don’t want to use a maple syrup at all, you can’t replace it with a granulated or powdered sweetener without changing the consistency. But, you can use a different liquid sweetener with a similar consistency, if you like. Sugar-free simple syrup or even sugar-free vanilla syrup would also be delicious!

Variations

  • Peanut – Swap the almonds for peanuts. (Or add a boost of protein by making protein peanut butter balls.)
  • Nut-Free – Use sunflower seeds instead of almonds and sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter.
  • Double Chocolate – Replace 2 tablespoons of the flaxseed meal with cocoa powder. Or simply make my chocolate keto fat bombs instead.
  • Snickerdoodle – Add a couple teaspoons of cinnamon and omit the chocolate chips.

Storage Instructions

  • Make ahead: These keto no bake energy balls are a perfect make-ahead snack. While you can eat them right away, they are also easy to store ina glass storage container.
  • Store:Keep your keto bites in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  • Freeze:You can keep the bites in the freezer for 3-6 months. Take them out to thaw slightly before biting in!
