Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the oats and protein powder.
- In a small dish, heat the coconut oil and creamy peanut butter until oil is just melted (heat on low so the peanut butter doesn’t burn).
- Whisk in the peanut butter/oil to the oat mixture until mostly combined. Add in ⅛ cup + 1 tablespoon of jam and mix again.
- Finally, add in the almond milk.
- Let sit for one minute so the protein powder absorbs.
- Then, using your hands roll the mixture into balls (makes ten). Place the balls on a piece of parchment paper.
- In a small dish, whisk the syrup and remaining jam. Spoon into a piping bag (or a plastic baggie with a hole) and drizzle jam on top of the balls.
- Place in the freezer for thirty minutes to set.
- When you’re ready to eat. Grab a ball and let sit for 5-10 minutes before popping it into your mouth!

Notes
- Note: depending on your protein powder you may need 1-2 extra tablespoons of almond milk to make the mixture stick as some powders are more absorbent than others.
- The protein powder you choose will affect both the flavor and the texture of the balls. Check out my three favorite protein powders and know that the fermented ones absorb liquid more. Likewise, if using a brown rice protein, I would add an extra ½ tablespoon of coconut oil to the mixture to make them less dry.
- Note: depending on your protein powder you may need 1-2 extra tablespoons of almond milk to make the mixture stick as some powders are more absorbent than others.
- You can sub in chocolate protein powder for vanilla if you really want to switch up the flavor!
- Let the balls thaw at room temperature for fifteen minutes (or in the fridge for longer) before enjoying
- Tip: if you have specific dietary restrictions (gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan) – double-check all your ingredients for appropriate brands!
- Keep in mind the protein values may be off by 1-2 grams as it depends on which protein powder you're using. Each vegan protein powder has a different markup of ingredients which can alter the intake slightly.
- The recipe makes ten balls. One serving is two balls
