Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened natural peanut butter
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 0.5 cup non-flavored protein powder
- 0.25 cup mini dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons milk (any low sodium milk or milk alternative)
Instructions
Combine the unsweetened natural peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
Add the unsweetened shredded coconut, old-fashioned oats, and non-flavored protein powder to the bowl. Mix thoroughly.
Stir in the mini dark chocolate chips and chia seeds until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Gradually add the milk, one tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each addition, until the mixture becomes cohesive and holds together without being too sticky.
Scoop a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
Place the formed protein balls on a tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to set.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Enjoy these protein balls as a snack or quick breakfast!
