In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, and ground flaxseed. Stir to mix the dry ingredients evenly.
In a microwave-safe bowl, gently heat the low-fat peanut butter to make it easier to mix, about 10-15 seconds.
Add the heated peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and forms a thick dough.
Fold in the mini dark chocolate chips and salt, mixing until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into 1-inch balls. Place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
Once all the balls are formed, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up.
Store the protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. They can also be frozen for longer storage.
Enjoy your tasty and nutritious protein balls as a grab-and-go snack or post-workout treat!
