In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, flaxseed meal, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds, and coconut flakes.
In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the almond butter and honey. Microwave on high for about 20-30 seconds, just until the mixture is warm and easier to stir.
Add the vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the almond butter and honey mixture, and stir until fully combined.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Use a spatula or spoon to thoroughly mix all the ingredients until everything is well coated.
Once mixed, use your hands to form bite-sized balls, pressing the mixture firmly so they hold together. If the mixture is too dry, you can add a little more honey or a splash of water.
Place the formed granola bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate the granola bites for at least 30 minutes to let them firm up.
Once chilled, transfer the granola bites into an airtight container for storage. They can be kept in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
