Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/2 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/4 cup freeze-dried strawberries

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Optional: Mini chocolate chips (for added sweetness)

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond butter, and honey or maple syrup. Stir until well combined, ensuring that all oats are coated.

    Divide the Mixture: Divide the mixture evenly into three separate bowls: one for chocolate, one for vanilla, and one for strawberry.

      Add Flavors:

        - Chocolate Mixture: To one bowl, add the cocoa powder and a pinch of salt. Mix until fully incorporated.

          - Strawberry Mixture: To another bowl, add the freeze-dried strawberries and vanilla extract. Mix until evenly distributed.

            - Vanilla Mixture (Optional): If you want a vanilla-flavored ball, you can leave the third mixture as it is or add a bit of extra sweetener to taste.

              Form the Bites: Using your hands, take small amounts from each flavored mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. You can choose to layer them in a tri-color manner or create individual flavored bites.

                Chill: Place the energy bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once done, transfer to the refrigerator and let them chill for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, the energy bites are ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
