In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, ground flaxseed, unsweetened shredded coconut, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well until all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the peanut butter and honey (or sugar-free maple syrup) to the dry ingredients. Stir the mixture with a spatula or spoon until a sticky, cohesive dough forms.
Pour in the vanilla extract and continue mixing until the vanilla is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Once the mixture is well combined, use your hands to scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Continue this process until all mixture is used. You should end up with about 20 balls.
Place the balls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate the no-bake oat balls for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up before serving.
Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
