If you are trying to add protein into your diet these Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Protein Balls are a scrumptious way to do just that!
No baking required, only a few ingredients and a great nutritional snack! Especially those teen boys who are always hungry and looking for a satisfying and filling snack.
And guess what mama… they are packed with about 6 grams of protein! (depending on what protein powder you use)
These are a sweet little treat but if you wise you could omit the chocolate chips and add dates or just omit all together, but these are delicious just as outlined and you are using honey as the source of sweet! So that is a WIN when it is used alone too!
Pure Raw and Unfiltered Honey is the absolute best! You can grab yours HERE it’s hands down my favorite! You can also use code:LORI10 in your cart to save!
Here is how I did it:
Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Protein Balls Ingredients:
3.5 cups of Old Fashion oats
3 heaping scoops vanilla protein powder
2 scoop chocolate protein powder
This is equivalent to about 3/4 cups of protein powder when measured out from scoops.
1.5 cups peanut butter
3/4- 1 cup mini choc chips
2/3 cups honey
2/3 cup water
Makes about 30-45 balls 6 (ish) grams of protein per ball (depending on the size of the ball)
Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Protein Balls Directions:
Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl
Combine wet ingredients
Stir together until well combined
Scoop a Tablespoon of mixture and roll into a ball
Lay out parchment paper and place balls on the parchment paper
Once all protein balls are made you can place in a large baggie and place in refrigerator for storage for up to a week.
(can also freeze)
Makes approximately 30-45 protein balls depending on the size you make them
