Servings 12 2-ball servings

Ingredients
  

Chocolate Peanut Butter

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 scoops chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tbsp dark chocolate chips

Almond Joy

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats old fashioned
  • 1 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 scoops chocolate protein powder
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut
  • 2 tbsp dark chocolate chips

Cinnamon Raisin Cookie

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup natural cashew butter
  • 1/4 cup honey local
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt

Tahini Chocolate Chip

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats old fashioned
  • 1 cup tahini
  • 1/4 cup honey local
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Place ingredients in a large bowl and stir to combine. It takes a little arm muscle, and you can also knead it a little with your hands if easier. (Can also use stand mixer)
  • Use small cookie dough scoop (#40) to form into balls. Add 1 tsp water at a time to hold dough together if crumbly.
  • Store balls in covered container in the refrigerator. Will keep well in purse or backpack all day. Also freeze nicely up to 3 months in freezer safe container.

      I use the equivalent of 20g protein. Some brands are 1 scoop, others are 2 scoops. If you use 2 scoops and the mixture looks too thick, just add a 1-3 teaspoons of water to help it hold together well enough to form balls.
