In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, chopped almonds, dried cranberries, mini chocolate chips, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine.
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, add the almond butter and honey.
Microwave the almond butter and honey mixture for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until it is slightly melted and easy to stir.
Add the vanilla extract to the melted almond butter and honey mixture and stir until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix until everything is evenly coated and sticks together.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a tablespoon, scoop out the mixture and roll into small balls, about 1-inch in diameter, placing them onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Place the granola bites in the refrigerator to set for at least 1 hour before serving.
Store the granola bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
