Add the oats to a food processor bowl. Pulse until the oats are finely chopped into small pieces.
Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl, and pulse until the ingredients form what resembles a dough ball.
Add the cacao nibs and pulse just for a few seconds until the nibs are thoroughly mixed throughout the dough.
Scoop the dough (I use a cookie scoop) into individual bites, and place the bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate the bites until firm (a couple of hours), or freeze (30 minutes).
Once the bites are firm, remove them from the baking sheet and store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for several months.
Notes
*If your nut butter contains salt, skip the salt. Taste the cookie dough once formed, and add salt to taste. I don't use salted nut butter to make the bites so I've found that 1/2 teaspoon of salt is the perfect amount. **Cacao nibs are basically unsweetened chocolate chips. If you don't want to use cacao nibs, or can't find them, use mini chocolate chips (Enjoy Life Mini Chocolate Chips would be perfect). If you have cacao nibs and want to make another recipe, I recommend my chocolate granola.
