Protein Peanut Butter Balls
1.5 cups of rolled oats
2 Tbsp ground flaxseed
2 Tbsp chia seeds
pinch of sea salt
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (I use PurePaleo but any vanilla protein powder will do!)
3/4 cup natural smooth peanut butter (any nut butter will do!)
1/4 cup unpasteurized honey
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (I use Enjoy Life as this brand is dairy-free but any will do!)
- Add the oats, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, and salt to the food processor and pulse until some of the oats are broken into very small pieces or are crumbly.
- Stir in the protein powder.
- Transfer to a mixing bowl and add in the nut butter, and honey. Stir with a wooden spoon. If the dough does not stick together, add ½ tablespoon of water at a time and mix in until the dough sticks together easily when formed into a ball.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Roll the dough into 20 balls using about 2 tablespoons of dough. Dampen your hands slightly with water to prevent sticking.
- ENJOY right away or you can freeze and eat as an snack before or after a workout!
