Total Time 15 minutes
Servings: 12 servings
Calories: 215

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup creamy almond butter, well stirred
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, stir the almond butter, honey, and vanilla for about 1 minute until smooth and fully combined.
  2. Fold in the oats, protein powder, salt, and chocolate chips until no dry streaks remain, about 30 seconds.
  3. Scoop about 2 tbsp of dough and roll into a smooth ball. Repeat to make 12 balls. Serve immediately or chill for 15 minutes to set.

Notes

The prep time covers measuring and mixing only. If you want a firmer ball, factor in 15 minutes of chilling not included in this estimate. The balls soften a bit at room temperature, so keep them chilled for the best texture if you are not eating them within a couple of hours.
