In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, ground flaxseed, and chia seeds (if using). Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
Add the natural peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir until everything is thoroughly combined and forms a sticky dough-like consistency.
Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Using clean hands or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
Place the bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
Refrigerate the bites for 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Once chilled, transfer the bites to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 1 month. Enjoy cold or at room temperature!
