### Ingredients:
– **1 cup rolled oats** (or gluten-free oats)
– **1/2 cup nut or seed butter** (peanut butter, almond butter, sunflower seed butter, etc.)
– **1/4 cup honey or maple syrup** (for sweetness)
– **1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or dried fruit** (optional but highly recommended for added flavor)
– **1/4 cup chia seeds or flaxseeds** (for fiber and omega-3s)
– **1/4 cup shredded coconut** (unsweetened, for texture and flavor)
– **1 teaspoon vanilla extract** (for that extra kick of flavor)
– **Pinch of salt** (to balance out the sweetness)
### Instructions:
#### 1. **Prepare Your Mixing Bowl**:
Start by gathering all your ingredients and grabbing a large mixing bowl. This is a no-bake recipe, so everything can be mixed together in one bowl.
#### 2. **Mix the Wet Ingredients**:
In the bowl, combine the nut or seed butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. You can microwave the nut butter for 10-15 seconds to make it easier to mix.
#### 3. **Add the Dry Ingredients**:
Now, it’s time to add the dry ingredients: rolled oats, chia seeds (or flaxseeds), shredded coconut, and a pinch of salt. Stir everything together until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated in the wet mixture.
#### 4. **Add Optional Extras**:
This is where you can get creative. Add in your dark chocolate chips, dried fruit, or any other extras like nuts, seeds, or spices (like cinnamon or a pinch of sea salt). Mix everything together until well distributed.
#### 5. **Form the Snacks**:
Now that your mixture is ready, it’s time to shape them. Using your hands or a spoon, form the mixture into small balls—about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter. You should be able to make 12-15 bite-sized balls.
#### 6. **Chill and Set**:
Place the formed balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Put them in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to set. This will help them firm up and hold their shape.
#### 7. **Store and Enjoy**:
Once chilled, your on-the-go snacks are ready to eat! Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze them for longer storage. They make the perfect grab-and-go snack that’s as delicious as it is nutritious.
### Why These Snacks Are Perfect for On-the-Go:
– **Energy Boosting**: The combination of oats, nut butter, and honey gives you sustained energy throughout the day. The healthy fats from the nut butter, the fiber from the oats, and the natural sugars from honey or maple syrup work together to keep you feeling satisfied without a sugar crash.
