No-Bake Energy Balls

My family loves these energy bites! Chewy, nutty, and easy to make with pantry ingredients, they're one of our favorite healthy snacks. Because this recipe is so simple, it's a great one to make with kids. My son Ollie and I make it together all the time!

1 In a large bowl, place the oats, peanut butter, flax seed, honey, vanilla, chocolate chips, peanuts, and coconut. If your peanut butter is unsalted, add a pinch of salt too. Mix to combine. The mixture will be thick.
2 Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop the mixture, then use your hands to roll it into balls.
3 Place on a large plate or baking sheet and chill in the fridge for 1 to 2 hours, or until firm.
4 The energy bites keep well in the fridge for up to a week. They also freeze well.
