No Bake Peanut Butter Protein Balls
These No Bake Peanut Butter Protein Balls are an easy and small power snack that will keep you going once you’ve hit your slump.
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 scoops chocolate protein powder
- 1/4 cup hemp seeds
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt depending on the peanut butter you use
- 1 and 1/4 cups natural peanut butter
- 4 tablespoons maple syrup depending on the peanut butter you use
- 1 to 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil depending on how oily your peanut butter is
Instructions
- Combine everything in a bowl and mix with your hands until the mixture is able to hold a shape when you compress it. Depending on the amount of oil the natural peanut butter you use has, you might have to add 1 or 2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil. You can also add more maple syrup if you want a sweeter tasting protein ball.
- Pack a 1.5” cookie scooper (or a heaping tablespoon) with the mixture and release it into your hands. Form a ball and continue until all the mixture has been used. Dust with cocoa powder if desired.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 or 3 weeks.
