Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (180g) Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1 cup (250g) Creamy Natural Peanut Butter
  • 0.5 cup (170g) Honey or Maple Syrup
  • 0.5 cup (60g) Vanilla Whey or Plant-Based Protein Powder
  • 0.5 cup (90g) Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 0.25 cup (20g) Shredded Unsweetened Coconut
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 0.25 tsp Sea Salt
  • 0.5 tsp Ground Cinnamon

Instructions:

  1. Combine the 2 cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats, 0.5 cup protein powder, 0.25 cup shredded coconut, 0.25 tsp sea salt, and 0.5 tsp cinnamon in a large bowl.
  2. Add 1 cup Creamy Natural Peanut Butter, 0.5 cup honey, and 1 tsp vanilla extract to the center of the dry mix.
  3. Fold the ingredients together until no dry streaks of protein powder remain. This might take a bit of elbow grease, so keep mashing and folding.
  4. Gently stir in the 0.5 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips.
  5. Check the consistency: pinch a bit of the dough; it should hold together until you pull it apart with force. If it crumbles, add 1 tablespoon of water.
  6. Place the entire bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes until the dough feels firm and less tacky.
  7. Using a small scoop or tablespoon, portion out the dough into 24 pieces.
  8. Roll each portion between your palms until a smooth, round sphere forms. Use damp hands to prevent sticking.
  9. Arrange the balls on a parchment lined tray or directly into a storage container.
  10. Let the finished balls set in the fridge for another 15 minutes until they are fully cold and solid.
