Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 2/3 cup toasted shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened)
  • 1/2 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips (or vegan chocolate chips)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Stir all the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until they are thoroughly combined, ensuring an even distribution of peanut butter, honey, and vanilla throughout the dry ingredients.
  2. Chill Mixture: Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours. Chilling helps the mixture firm up, making it easier to form into balls.
  3. Form Balls: Once chilled, roll the mixture into 1-inch diameter balls using your hands, ensuring they are compact and hold together.
  4. Serve or Store: Enjoy the energy bites immediately or store them in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. For longer storage, freeze them for up to 3 months.

Notes

  • Use vegan chocolate chips if you want to keep this snack vegan.
  • To toast shredded coconut, spread it on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Chia seeds are optional but add extra fiber and omega-3s.
  • If the mixture is too dry to roll, add a little more peanut butter or honey.
  • Energy bites can be customized with nuts, dried fruit, or seeds to your preference.
