Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, add creamy almond butter, shredded coconut, old-fashioned oats, ground flax seed, and brewer’s yeast. Blend until fully incorporated, creating a dough-like mixture.
  2. If the mixture appears too dry, add a splash of almond milk to achieve a cohesive texture or fold in additional oats if too wet.
  3. Roll small amounts of dough into bite-sized balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Chill the bites in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
  5. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
