How to Make Oatmeal Granola Cookie Balls

In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup peanut butter (or other nut butter), 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup granola, 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional), 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional), and 1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional).
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Use a cookie scoop or spoon to form the mixture into 1-inch balls.
Place the cookie balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the cookie balls to firm up. (Optional: For a slightly crispier exterior, bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.)
