Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, 2 tbsp ground flaxseed, 1/4 cup mini dark chocolate chips, and 1/4 tsp sea salt. Stir to evenly distribute.
  2. Step 2: Add 3/4 cup almond butter, 1/3 cup honey, and 1 tsp vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly with a spatula until the mixture is sticky and holds together.
  3. Step 3: Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into 1-inch diameter balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Step 4: Refrigerate the energy bites for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
