In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped almonds, dried cranberries, mini chocolate chips, and chia seeds.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, mix the peanut butter and honey together. Microwave on high for about 30 seconds or until the mixture is warm and more fluid.
Add the vanilla extract to the peanut butter and honey mixture and stir to combine.
Pour the peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl.
Stir all ingredients together until well combined. The mixture should be sticky.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll it into 1-inch balls.
Place the granola bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Once all the mixture is rolled into balls, refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes to set.
Store the granola bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
