Ingredients
  

1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup almond butter (or your preferred nut butter)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

Zest of 1 lime

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Optional: 1/4 cup crushed pistachios or chopped almonds for rolling

Instructions
 

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, rolled oats, lime zest, and a pinch of salt. Stir thoroughly until all dry ingredients are well mixed.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), fresh lime juice, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully blended.

      Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or spoon, stir until the mixture is fully combined and forms a sticky dough that holds together.

        Form Bites: With clean hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter. Place the formed bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they don’t touch.

          Optional Rolling: For an extra layer of flavor and a crunchy texture, roll some of the bites in crushed pistachios or chopped almonds before placing them on the baking sheet.

            Chill: Transfer the baking sheet with the coconut lime bites to the refrigerator. Allow them to chill for at least 30 minutes, which helps them firm up for easy handling.

              Serve and Enjoy: Once the bites are chilled, remove them from the refrigerator and enjoy these refreshing no-bake treats! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
