In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the peanut butter and honey. Stir gently until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, whey protein powder, chia seeds, chopped almonds, and shredded coconut.
Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips while the mixture is still warm, allowing them to partially melt into the clusters.
Using a small ice cream scoop or tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate the clusters for about 30 minutes to set.
Once set, remove from the refrigerator and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
