Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/2 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Optional: 1/4 cup chia seeds or flaxseeds for added nutrition

Instructions
 

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, and sea salt. If you're using chia seeds or flaxseeds, add them in at this stage.

    Blend Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until well combined.

      Mix Together: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir everything together until the mixture is sticky and all the dry ingredients are thoroughly coated.

        Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

          Form the Bites: Using your hands, take small amounts of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If the mixture is too sticky, lightly wet your hands to make rolling easier.

            Chill: Place the energy bites on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.

              Store: Once chilled, transfer the energy bites to an airtight container. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
