Ingredients
- 1 cup chocolate protein powder (any brand)
- 1 cup rolled oats (for texture)
- 1 cup natural peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
- ½ cup honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 2–3 tbsp dark chocolate chips (optional but delicious)
- 1 tbsp chia seeds (for fiber and omega-3s)
Instructions
Mix Ingredients: Combine protein powder, oats, peanut butter, honey, chocolate chips, and chia seeds in a medium bowl. Stir until the mixture forms a sticky dough. If it’s too dry, add water 1 tsp at a time.
Shape Bites: Scoop about 1–1½ tbsp of dough and roll into balls with your hands. Place on a wax paper-lined plate or baking sheet. Tip: Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking.
Chill: Refrigerate the bites for 20 minutes to firm up. In a hurry? Freeze them for 10 minutes instead.
