In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, and salt. Stir well to blend the dry ingredients thoroughly.
Add the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Use a wooden spoon or a spatula to mix the ingredients until they form a sticky, cohesive dough.
Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Using your hands, scoop out small portions of the dough and roll them into 1-inch balls. Place each ball on a lined baking sheet or a plate.
Once all the dough is used, chill the peanut butter protein balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Serve the protein balls immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
