These coconut- and oat-studded bites come together in just one bowl (no food processor required!). Keep them on hand for a healthy morning or afternoon pick-me-up or a satisfying after-school snack. If your family or school is nut-free, follow the sunflower butter option instead of using almond or peanut butter.

1/4 cup honey

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1 cup quick-cooking old-fashioned oats

1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

3/4 cup coarsely chopped dried cherries or whole raisins or mini chocolate chips

1/2 cup creamy almond, peanut, or sunflower butter

Preparation Stir honey, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, and 3 Tbsp. hot water in a medium bowl until smooth and incorporated. Stir in oats and coconut and let sit 10 minutes. Fold in cherries and almond butter and stir thoroughly to combine. Scoop mixture by the level tablespoon and roll into balls in between your palms. Transfer to a plate or rimmed baking sheet and chill at least 30 minutes before serving. Do Ahead Bites can be made 10 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill, or freeze up to 3 months.
