How To Make Honey Granola Snack Bites

In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, almond butter, Manuka honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until everything is fully incorporated and the mixture is thick and sticky.

Fold in the dried cherries and shredded coconut, if using, and mix until evenly distributed.

Scoop out portions of the mixture using about 1–2 tablespoons per bite. Roll each into a ball using your hands and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the bites firm up.

Once chilled, transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to one week. They’re ready to enjoy whenever you need a snack break.
