Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium mixing bowl, stir together 1 cup rolled oats, 3 tbsp ground flaxseed, 2 tbsp chia seeds, and 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut until evenly mixed.
  2. Step 2: Add 1/2 cup almond butter, 1/4 cup maple syrup, and 1 tsp vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well using a spatula until a sticky dough forms, ensuring all oats are coated.
  3. Step 3: Roll the mixture into 14 bite-sized balls about 1 inch each using your hands, pressing firmly to help them hold their shape.
  4. Step 4: Place the formed energy bites on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set. Keep stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days.
