Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Balls
These chocolate peanut butter no-bake energy bites taste just like a cookie, although they are high in protein and naturally sweetened.
Servings: 25 balls
Calories: 89kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2/3 cup toasted coconut flakes
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/2 cup almond meal
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Stir all ingredients together in a medium bowl until thoroughly mixed. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to make the mix easier to handle and mould.
- Once chilled, roll 1-2 tbsp into balls. Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.
Notes
- If the mix seems to dry, add in an extra tablespoon or two of honey or peanut butter.
- If the mix seems too wet, add extra rolled oats.
- Increase the protein further by added a couple of scoops of clear tasteless protein powder before mixing the ingredients
