Ingredients

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 cup rolled oats (100 grams)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (60 grams)
  • 1 scoop Cellucor Peanut Butter Marshmallow Whey Protein (33 grams)
  • 1 scoop Dymatize Elite Vanilla Casein Protein Powder (36 grams)
  • 1/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips (56 grams)
  • 2 tsp chia seeds (10 grams)
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup Skippy Natural Creamy Peanut Butter (85 grams)
  • 3 tbsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk (1.5 fl oz)
  • 2 tbsp honey (42 grams)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add all dry ingredients except chocolate chips to a bowl and mix until combined.
  2. Microwave peanut butter for 20-25 seconds to melt. Add honey and vanilla extract, then stir and pour over oat mixture.
  3. Add almond milk to the mixture and using a sturdy spatula, mix and press until all ingredients are combined. All of the protein powder should be absorbed. If the mixture seems dry, add more almond milk 1 tbsp at a time, then fold in chocolate chips.
  4. Using a cookie scoop to help, roll the mixture into about 1" to 1 1/2" balls. Place the balls into a resealable container and refrigerate overnight before serving. They will stay fresh in the refrigerator for 7-10 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes

  • Make it dairy free: Swap the whey and casein with a plant based protein powder like this. Add an additional 2-4 tbsp of almond milk.
