Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup nut butter (peanut or almond)
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2–3 tablespoons milk (almond, oat, cow, or any preferred)

Optional Add-Ins

  • Mini chocolate chips
  • Chopped nuts
  • Chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Throw rolled oats, unsweetened cocoa powder, chocolate protein powder, pinch of salt, nut butter, honey or maple syrup, and 2 tablespoons of milk into a bowl.
  2. Mix Dough: Stir the mixture until it forms a consistent dough. Add an additional tablespoon of milk if the mixture is too dry to help bind the ingredients together.
  3. Form Balls: Roll the dough into 1-inch balls using your hands, ensuring they are tight and compact.
  4. Chill: Place the protein balls in the fridge for 15–30 minutes to firm up. Alternatively, enjoy them immediately for a softer texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute the nut butter with sunflower seed butter if you have allergies.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup according to taste.
  • For extra nutrition, add chia seeds or flaxseeds into the mixture.
  • Store protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
