Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 1/4 cup oats
- 1/4 cup protein powder (I use this one)
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- pinch of salt (*if your peanut butter has no added salt)
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup mini dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a bowl or food processor and mix or pulse together until combined. (if using a food processor, add in the chocolate chips at the end and pulse just until mixed.)
- Use your hands to roll into even balls.
- Place in the fridge to set for 2 hours.
- Store in the fridge in an airtight container.
Notes
- If the mixture is too dry add more peanut butter.
- Mix by hand for a chunkier texture or use a food processor for a smoother result.
- Don’t add too many chocolate chips, it will make the balls hard to roll.
- Use a tablespoon or small scoop to portion evenly.
- If the dough feels sticky, chill it for 10 to 15 minutes before rolling.
- Try adding in chopped nuts, cacao nibs, coconut, or dried fruit to change it up.
- These oatmeal balls need to be stored in the fridge or freezer.
