Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup vanilla or chocolate protein powder
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup mini M&M’s
  • 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of sea salt

Method
 

  1. Stir the oats and protein powder together in a medium bowl until combined.
  2. Whisk the peanut butter, honey, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl until smooth.
  3. Add the dry mixture to the wet and stir into a thick dough. Fold in the mini M&M’s and chocolate chips.
  4. Roll into 12 balls, pressing a few extra M&M’s and chips onto the outside of each one if you like. Refrigerate for 30 minutes for a firmer texture, or enjoy right away.

Notes

The dough can be mixed and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days before rolling, so you can prep ahead and shape them when you need a snack. If your protein powder is unsweetened and you prefer a sweeter ball, add an extra drizzle of honey.
