Ingredients
Peanut Butter Protein Balls
- ½ cup peanut butter
- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 3 tablespoons unflavored protein powder
- 3 tablespoons honey
- ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt
Cinnamon Raisin Protein Balls
- ½ cup almond butter
- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 3 tablespoons unflavored protein powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
- ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 3 tablespoons raisins
Chocolate Protein Balls
- ½ cup nut butter
- ¼ cup cacao powder
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons unflavored protein powder
- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ingredients for the flavor of protein ball you want to make, including the oats, nut butter, protein powder, sweetener, and salt. Use a spatula to mix well, until the dough looks thick and relatively uniform.
- Use a tablespoon or 1-ounce cookie scoop to scoop the dough, and then roll it between your hands to form a ball. Place the ball on a parchment lined plate or baking sheet, and repeat the process to make the rest of the balls. You should get roughly 12 to 14 balls for each flavor listed above, but this recipe can be doubled or tripled if you need to make more.
- Place the balls in the fridge to firm up for at least 1 hour (this will help make them less sticky), then transfer them to an airtight container and keep them stored in the fridge. They should last up to 2 weeks when chilled.
Notes
- Nutrition information is for 1 of 12 peanut butter protein balls. (Each flavor will vary slightly.) This information is automatically calculated, and is just an estimate, not a guarantee.
- I tested this recipe with Garden of Life Unflavored Protein Powder. Another brand or flavor might change the results, but feel free to experiment with what you have on hand!
- If you use a sweetened protein powder, you'll probably need less sweeter than this recipe calls for, so you may need to add a little water or melted coconut oil to help with binding.
