Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups (135g) rolled oats
- 0.5 cup (60g) protein powder
- 1 tbsp (8g) ground flaxseeds
- 0.5 cup (125g) creamy peanut butter
- 0.33 cup (110g) honey
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
- 0.33 cup (60g) mini dark chocolate chips
- 0.25 tsp (1.5g) sea salt
- 1 tbsp (15ml) water
Instructions:
- Whisk the rolled oats, protein powder, ground flaxseeds, and sea salt in a large bowl until no clumps remain.
- Fold in the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract using a rubber spatula until the mixture resembles a thick, heavy paste.
- Gently stir in the mini chocolate chips. If the dough is too dry to hold a shape, add water one teaspoon at a time.
- Scoop approximately 1 tablespoon of dough and roll between palms to form tight, 1-inch spheres.
- Place the balls on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up the structure.
