Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut

½ cup creamy almond butter (or peanut butter)

¼ cup honey or maple syrup

¼ cup mini chocolate chips

1 tsp vanilla extract

¼ tsp sea salt

Optional: 2 tbsp chia seeds or hemp seeds for added nutrition

Instructions
 

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, sea salt, and optional seeds. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Using a spatula or your hands, mix everything together until a sticky dough forms. If the mixture feels too dry, add a splash of water or more almond butter.

        Chill the Mixture: Once fully combined, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes. This helps firm it up and makes it easier to roll into balls.

          Form the Bites: After chilling, remove the mixture from the refrigerator. With clean hands, scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form small balls. Repeat until all the mixture is used.

            Store: Place the energy bites in an airtight container. You can enjoy them immediately, or for best flavor, refrigerate them for at least a few more hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld.

              Enjoy: Snack on these Coconut Chocolate Chip Energy Bites whenever you need a quick pick-me-up! They make perfect on-the-go breakfasts or post-workout snacks.
