Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, 3/4 cup almond butter, 1/3 cup honey, 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips, 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  2. Step 2: Stir the mixture thoroughly with a wooden spoon or spatula until all ingredients are evenly incorporated and the mixture becomes sticky and holds together.
  3. Step 3: Using clean hands, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls, forming about 20 energy bites. Place the bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Step 4: Refrigerate the energy bites for at least 30 minutes to firm up before packing them for your picnic. Store in an airtight container and keep chilled until ready to eat.
