Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened peanut butter powder
- 2 tbsp Unsweetened protein powder
- 1/8 tsp Sea salt
- 1/2 cup Rolled oats
- 1/4 cup Sugar-free dark chocolate chips
Wet Ingredients
- 6 tbsp Water (plus more as needed)
- 2 tbsp Wholesome Yum Zero Sugar Maple Syrup
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, stir together the peanut butter powder, protein powder, and sea salt until evenly combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the water and maple syrup. Stir until the mixture develops the consistency of play dough. If too dry, add water gradually, 1-3 teaspoons at a time. If too wet, add more peanut butter powder to balance the texture.
- Combine Oats and Chocolate Chips: Add the rolled oats and sugar-free dark chocolate chips to the bowl. Press and mix the mixture well with a spatula until uniform throughout.
- Shape the Balls: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a small cookie scoop to portion out the mixture and roll each into 1-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Chill or Serve: Enjoy the oatmeal protein balls immediately for a soft texture, or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes if you prefer a firmer bite.
Notes
- Adjust the water quantity carefully to achieve the right dough consistency.
- Refrigeration firms the balls but is optional.
- Use gluten-free oats if you need a gluten-free snack.
- These balls keep well refrigerated for up to 1 week in an airtight container.
- For added flavor, consider mixing in cinnamon or vanilla extract.
