Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 14

Ingredients

  • 1 cup drippy all-natural peanut butter we recommend Trader Joe’s Brand or Good and Gather
  • 1/3 cup vanilla protein powder we used Garden of Life*
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup mini M&Ms
  • Optional: 1–4 teaspoons water*

Instructions

  • Combine peanut butter, protein powder, rolled oats, chia seeds, honey, vanilla extract, salt, mini chocolate chips, and M&Ms in a medium bowl.
  • Mix the dough using a wooden spoon or your hands. Gradually add water by the teaspoon until you reach the desired consistency.
  • Use a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop to form dough into balls. Roll them between your palms until all dough is used, yielding about 14-16 balls.
  • Store the protein balls in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze them for up to 3 months.

Notes

  • Use drippy peanut butter for the right consistency.
  • Feel free to add raisins or coconut flakes for extra flavor.
  • If the dough is too dry, add water gradually until you achieve the desired texture.
  • Store the protein balls in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze them for up to 3 months.
  • Nutrition content may vary depending on the protein powder used.
