Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl combine the rolled oats, collagen powder, and spices.
  2. Add in all the liquid ingredients and mix well.
  3. Use a 1-1.5 inch trigger ice cream scoop to portion the batter into balls. Press the mixture into the scoop with a silicone spatula so that there’s no air pockets.
  4. Place each protein ball onto a parchment paper-lined baking tray.
  5. If you’re using these at a party, use a toothpick to make vertical indentations around the sides of the balls to mimic a pumpkin.
  6. Top each energy ball with a chocolate chip, pressing down lightly to mimic a stem.
  7. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up before serving.

Notes

  • If you grind the oats or pulse them in a food processor before you need them it makes the balls have a smoother texture (which is what you need if you're decorating them).
  • Mix the batter for longer than you think. This helps everything combine well and actually hold together.
  • You can either add the chocolate chips into the balls or simply top each no-bake ball with one on top (which helps give it a pumpkin look). I personally just top them.Make sure to use gluten-free oats if needed for celiac (learn all about beginner tips to a gluten-free diet).
  • Sometimes you need to adjust the texture a bit with energy balls. If the mixture seems wet, add in a bit more oats. If it seems too dry, I’d add a bit more almond butter.
  • The recipe makes 20-ish balls and each serving is two balls.
