Ingredients
- ½ cup quick oats
- ½ cup protein powder of choice*
- 2 Tbsp Hemp seeds or chia seeds
- ¾ cup creamy unsweetened almond butter**
- 3 Tbsp pure maple syrup
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Pinch sea salt
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon to taste
- ⅓ cup raisins
- 2-4 Tbsp Water***
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients for the protein energy balls to a food processor.
- Turn the food processor on and process until a thick mixture forms and everything is well combined. You may need to scrape the sides of the food processor with a rubber spatula to get the ingredients to blend evenly.
- Add 2 to 4 tablespoons of water, or as needed, until the ball mixture presses together easily so that you can form balls out of it. If the mixture crumbles easily, that means it needs more water. It should resemble a drier cookie dough. A little water goes a long way so be sure to blend the mixture well in between additions.
- Form 12 to 16 balls out of the protein ball mixture. You are now ready to enjoy them, or save them for later!
- Store protein bites in an airtight container or a zip lock bag in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Freeze balls for up to 3 months.
Notes
- *I use unflavored, unsweetened goat whey protein powder or egg white protein powder, but any protein powder that you love will work. Vanilla protein powder would be ideal.

- **I use unsalted, unsweetened natural almond butter. If you’re using a nut butter that contains salt, you may not need to add salt to the balls.

- ***You will likely need to add a small amount of water to get everything to blend together nicely. I use 4 tablespoons. Once the mixture can be pressed into balls easily, you’ll know you have the right consistency.
