Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder (approximately 60 grams)
  • 1/4 cup ground flax meal
  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the old fashioned oats, creamy peanut butter, honey, vanilla protein powder, ground flax meal, and mini chocolate chips. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is well blended and sticky enough to hold together.
  2. Form balls: Divide the mixture into about 30 equal portions. Roll each portion between your palms to form small, uniform balls.
  3. Chill: Place the formed balls on a baking sheet or plate and refrigerate until they are firm and set, which usually takes about 30 minutes to an hour.
  4. Store: Transfer the protein balls to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for longer storage.

Notes

  • For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.
  • Use gluten-free oats to make the recipe gluten-free.
  • Adjust the amount of honey for desired sweetness.
  • These protein balls can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 7 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
  • To vary flavors, try using different protein powder flavors or adding shredded coconut or chopped nuts.
