Almond Joy Energy Bites Easy and Tasty Snack Idea

Ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 0.5 cup almond butter
• 0.25 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
• 0.25 cup honey or maple syrup
• 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup chopped almonds

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond butter, shredded coconut, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
2. Add the dark chocolate chips, chopped almonds, and sea salt to the mixture. Stir until evenly distributed.
3. Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If the mixture is sticky, you can dampen your hands with a little water to make rolling easier.

5. Once set, transfer the energy bites to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
