Ingredients
  

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup almond butter (or any nut butter of your choice)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup chopped dark chocolate or cacao nibs

1/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Using a whisk or spatula, mix vigorously until the blend is smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.

    Gradually fold in the rolled oats, chopped dark chocolate (or cacao nibs), shredded coconut, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently until all components are well combined and uniformly distributed throughout the mixture.

      Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, dollop the mixture onto the parchment-lined sheet, shaping it into disk forms approximately 1 to 2 inches in diameter.

        With the back of the spoon, gently press down on each disk to flatten them slightly, achieving a more even shape.

          Carefully place the baking sheet in the freezer, allowing the disks to freeze for about 2-3 hours or until completely solid.

            Once the energy disks have frozen thoroughly, transfer them to a sealed container or zip-top bag. Store them in the freezer where they will keep fresh for up to 3 months.

              For a convenient snack, simply grab a disk from the freezer, let it sit for a minute or two if desired, and enjoy the delightful taste!
