No-Bake Energy Bites

Course Snack
Prep Time 5 minutes
Active Time 30 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 cup quick-cooking old fashion oats
  • 1/2-3/4 cup creamy peanut butter I started out with 1/2, but ended adding 1/4 cup more
  • 1/2 cup dried sweet cherries
  • 1/2 cup mixture of semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips I store my chocolate chips as a mixture of both semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips. Use your preference!
  • 1/2 cup coconut flakes
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 drizzle honey

Instructions

  1. Mix the 1 tablespoon of chia seeds with 2 tablespoons of water until a jelly-like substance is formed.

  2. Mix all of the ingredients together in a bowl. Add the salt and honey last to adjust to your preference. 

    The texture should be firm enough that you should be able to roll the mixture into 1-2 inch size balls and place on a plate or tray. 

  3. Put the bites in freezer until frozen. 

    After they're frozen, I like to store my in a freezer bag or glass/plastic container with a lid.
