1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/2 cup ground flaxseed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, nut butter, honey, mini chocolate chips, ground flaxseed, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
- Once chilled, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls using your hands. If the mixture is too sticky, lightly wet your hands to make rolling easier.
- Place the energy bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate until firm. Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- Enjoy these no-bake energy bites as a quick snack or an on-the-go energy boost.
Notes
For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
If you don’t have ground flaxseed, chia seeds or finely chopped nuts can be used instead.
Store in the refrigerator or freeze for longer shelf life.
