In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, cocoa powder, and chia seeds. Stir thoroughly to mix the dry ingredients.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine creamy peanut butter and honey. Microwave for 20-30 seconds or until slightly melted, making it easier to mix.
Remove the mixture from the microwave and stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the peanut butter and honey mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is fully incorporated. The mixture should be thick and sticky.
Fold the dark chocolate chips into the oat mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll it between your palms to form balls.
Place the formed oat balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Once all the balls are formed, refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Once firm, transfer the oat balls to an airtight container. Store them in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Enjoy your delicious and healthy soy-free no-bake oat balls as a snack or dessert!
