Instructions
  1. Step 1: Gather Ingredients - Start by collecting all your ingredients. This makes the mixing process smooth and hassle-free.
  2. Step 2: Combine Dry Ingredients - In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, finely crushed graham crackers, chia seeds, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir until everything is well mixed.
  3. Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients - Add the creamy peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Use a spatula to mix everything together until fully combined. The mixture should be sticky but moldable.
  4. Step 4: Fold in Chocolate Chips and Mallow Bits - Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips and Mallow Bits.
  5. Step 5: Roll into Bites - With clean hands, take small amounts of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls, aiming for about 1 inch in diameter.
  6. Step 6: Chill - Place the rolled bites on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up.
  7. Step 7: Enjoy! - Once chilled, your Smores Energy Bites are ready to enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
