WTF AWS CLI? "No credentials found in credential_source referenced in profile"

I was recently debugging a bash script that was failing on an EC2 instance. The script was fairly straight forward and was using the AWS CLI to make some changes to the AWS config, however it was failing with the error "Error when retrieving credentials from Ec2InstanceMetadata: No credentials found in credential_source referenced in profile"

The error implies that the correct credentials cannot be found via the Metadata API, right? Apparently not.
