Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bake Energy Bites

These tasty cookies taste very similar to a chocolate no-bake, but are gluten, dairy, and refined sugar free! Plus, they require NO cooking, and are a snap to make!

Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bake Energy Bites
From Gimme Some Oven

Makes about 20-25 balls

Ingredients:
1 cup old fashioned oats (gluten free if desired)
2/3 cup (toasted) unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup peanut butter (we used natural)
1/2 cup ground flax seed
1/3 cup honey or agave nectar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 Tbsp chia seeds (optional, we prefer them without)
1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:
1. Stir all ingredients together in a medium bowl until thoroughly mixed. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least half an hour, to max the mix easier to handle and mold.
2. Once chilled, roll into balls of whatever size you would like (we did a rounded tablespoon size, about 1" diameter). Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.
