Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup nut butter (Peanut butter, almond butter, or any preferred nut butter)

- Add Nut Butter and Sweetener: Add the nut butter and honey or maple syrup to the dry ingredients, stirring well to integrate these sticky components.
- Add Monster Energy Drink: Slowly pour in the Monster Energy drink while stirring until the mixture holds together. If the mixture is too dry, add a bit more Monster Energy drink for better consistency.
- Incorporate Optional Add-ins: Fold in mini chocolate chips and shredded coconut for enhanced flavor and texture, if desired.
- Form Energy Bites: Use your hands to roll the mixture into small, tablespoon-sized bites, making them uniform in size for even chilling.
- Place on Lined Surface: Set the formed bites on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
