Report

These almond joy protein balls taste like an almond joy bar, but healthier! One protein ball has 5 grams of protein and only 3 grams of sugar!

Instructions

Place oats, almond butter, honey, protein powder and shredded coconut in a large bowl and stir to combine.
Getting the mixture to combine takes a little arm muscle and it may seem too thick at first, but it will come together as you keep mixing. I used my hands to knead the dough near the end and that seems to help.
Once combined, use a small cookie scoop to scoop and form the dough into balls.
Store in a covered container in the fridge or freezer.

Notes

Protein powder

Honey: Maple syrup will work great as a substitute for honey.
Almond butter: If you’re looking to swap the almond butter with another nut or seed butter you could use cashew butter, peanut butter, tahini or sunflower seed butter.
Protein powder: The chocolate protein powder is what gives these protein balls that almond joy flavor, but feel free to use your favorite brand and flavor of protein powder for this recipe!
