Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Peanut butter (natural, unsweetened)
- 0.5 cup Protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 0.25 cup Mini chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, mini chocolate chips, and salt. Stir well to mix the dry ingredients evenly.
Add the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients in the bowl.
Use a spatula or your hands to thoroughly mix the ingredients until well combined. The mixture should be sticky and hold together when pressed.
Take small portions of the mixture, about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons each, and roll them between your palms to form balls. You should end up with approximately 20 energy balls.
Place the formed energy balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate the energy balls for at least 30 minutes to set before serving.
Store the energy balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
