Preparation
  1. Grind the oats for about 1 minute in a food processor, until they’re almost ground down.
  2. Add in all the other ingredients minus the chocolate chips and mix until incorporated and the mixture begins to turn into a dough. It should be slightly sticky and very thick.
  3. Add in the chocolate chips and pulse about 15 times until the chips are smaller and incorporated throughout the energy bites.
  4. Roll the mixture into round balls using a tablespoon measurer until the entire mixture is rolled out, into about 20-22 bites.
  5. Place in the fridge for at least an hour to set, then enjoy!
