Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • Pinch fine sea salt

Method
 

  1. Stir the oats, cocoa powder, protein powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
  2. Add the peanut butter and honey, then mix until a thick dough forms with no dry spots.
  3. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into smooth balls, placing them on a parchment-lined plate.
  4. Refrigerate the balls for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

If the dough feels too dry after adding the peanut butter and honey, work in a teaspoon of water or milk at a time until it holds together when pressed. The balls firm up fully only after chilling, so do not skip that step.
