Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/4 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)

1/4 cup ground flaxseed

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, ground flaxseed, mini chocolate chips, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir until well combined.

    Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Use a spatula or your hands to mix everything together until all ingredients are well combined. The mixture should be sticky but moldable.

        Shape the Bites: Using your hands, scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat this process until all the mixture is used up, placing the energy bites on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

          Chill: Once all the bites are shaped, place them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up. This will make them easier to handle and enhance their flavor.

            Serve and Store: Enjoy your no-bake energy bites as a nutritious snack! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
