Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup no-stir almond butter (or creamy peanut butter)
  • 1/4 cup honey (plus 2 tbsp)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • up to 4 tsp warm water (to adjust consistency)
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats (raw)
  • 3/4 cup toasted or raw coconut (sweetened)
  • 1/2 cup flaxseed meal
  • 6 tbsp semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Gather your ingredients. This will make the mixing process smoother.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the almond butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
  • Sprinkle in the cocoa powder and stir until fully incorporated.
  • If the mixture feels too thick, add warm water, a teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
  • Add the oats, coconut, flaxseed meal, and chocolate chips to the bowl. Fold everything together until evenly mixed.
  • With clean hands, roll small amounts of the mixture into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a cookie sheet or plate.
  • Chill the tray in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up the bites.
  • After chilling, enjoy your No-Bake Chocolate Energy Bites!
