No-Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Balls

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (or any nut or seed butter of your choice)
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup chocolate protein powder
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the old-fashioned oats, chocolate protein powder, ground flaxseed, and a pinch of salt. Mix these dry ingredients together.

  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until the mixture is thoroughly combined. You may need to use a wooden spoon or your hands for this step.

  3. Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate. These will add a delightful touch of sweetness and a hint of chocolatey goodness.

  4. Chill the Mixture: Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes. Chilling makes it easier to handle and shape into balls.

  5. Roll into Balls: After the mixture has chilled, take it out and start rolling it into bite-sized balls. You can make them as large or small as you like.

  6. Store: Place the protein balls on a tray or plate and store them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set.

  7. Enjoy: Once they've set, your homemade protein balls are ready to enjoy. You can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for longer shelf life.
