Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup

1/2 cup chopped nuts (such as almonds, walnuts, or pecans)

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips or dark chocolate chunks

1/4 cup dried fruits (such as cranberries, raisins, or apricots)

1/4 cup chia seeds or flaxseeds

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips, dried fruits, chia seeds, and sea salt. Stir until everything is evenly mixed.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond or peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or your hands, mix everything together until thoroughly incorporated. The mixture should be sticky but manageable.

        Form Energy Balls: Take a tablespoon-sized amount of the mixture and roll it into a ball between your palms. Place the ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat until all the mixture is rolled into balls.

          Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set the energy balls. This makes them firmer and easier to handle.

            Store and Enjoy: Once chilled, transfer the energy balls to an airtight container. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week or frozen for up to a month.
