Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (or substitute with almond butter)

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup

1/2 cup ground flaxseed

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (or opt for dried fruit for a healthier alternative)

1/4 cup chia seeds

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Optional: 1/4 cup coconut flakes or chopped nuts for an extra layer of flavor and texture

Instructions
 

Combine Wet Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add the creamy peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Use a whisk to blend these ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the rolled oats, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, and a pinch of sea salt. If you’ve chosen to include coconut flakes or chopped nuts for added flavor, incorporate them into this dry mixture.

      Combine Mixtures: Carefully pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until everything is well combined, ensuring that the mixture is slightly sticky and holds together.

        Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently add the mini chocolate chips (or dried fruit) to the mixture. Carefully fold them in to ensure they are evenly distributed without breaking the chips.

          Form Energy Bites: With clean hands, scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat this process until all of the mixture is formed into energy bites. You should yield approximately 12-15 bites.

            Chill: Arrange the energy bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up and hold their shape.

              Store and Enjoy: Once chilled and set, transfer the energy bites to an airtight container. You can store them in the fridge for up to a week or freeze them for longer-lasting snacks.
