Total Time 40 minutes mins
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter preferably natural
- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- ⅓ cup protein powder vanilla or chocolate work well
- 2-3 tablespoons honey adjust for sweetness
In a large mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, oats, flax seeds, chia seeds, protein powder, and honey. Stir until the mixture forms a thick dough.
If the mixture feels too dry, add 1–2 teaspoons of water or milk of choice. If it’s too sticky, add a bit more oats or protein powder.
Scoop out small portions (using a 1-inch cookie scoop) and roll them into balls using your hands.
Place the balls on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set.
Store the protein balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
