Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Natural peanut butter
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.25 cup Ground flaxseed
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 0.25 cup Vanilla protein powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons Almond milk
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the natural peanut butter, rolled oats, ground flaxseed, shredded coconut, chia seeds, and vanilla protein powder.
Add the vanilla extract and unsweetened cocoa powder to the mixture. Stir the ingredients together until they are well combined.
Gradually add the almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition until the mixture becomes sticky enough to hold together but not too wet.
Using a tablespoon, scoop the mixture and roll it between your palms to form 1-inch balls. Repeat until all the mixture is used, placing each ball onto a parchment-lined tray.
Chill the protein balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze for up to a month.
