peanut butter protein balls
Serves 205 mins prep0 mins cook
These peanut butter protein balls are chewy, a little crunchy from rice cereal, and genuinely taste like something you'd want to eat ā not something you're eating because you have to š¤©. Each ball has ~5 grams of protein and takes about 5 minutes to make. Yes, this recipe uses protein powder ā and that's exactly what makes it work!

Instructions
0 Add the [wprm-ingredient text="1 cup peanut butter" uid="1"], [wprm-ingredient text="Ā½ cup honey" uid="2"], [wprm-ingredient text="2 servings vanilla protein powder" uid="3"], [wprm-ingredient text="1 cup oat flour" uid="4"], [wprm-ingredient text="1 tsp vanilla extract" uid="7"], and [wprm-ingredient text="pinch of salt" uid="8"] to a large bowl. Mix with a hand mixer until fully combined and no dry pockets remain.Lightly mix in the [wprm-ingredient text="1 cup rice cereal" uid="5"] and [wprm-ingredient text="2 tbsp dark chocolate chips" uid="6"]. Mixing too aggressively will crush the cereal.We use Clean Simple Eats Vanilla which is 2 scoops for 2 servings but your powder may be different. 2 Check the dough - it should hold together when pressed. If too dry, add honey or runny peanut butter a teaspoon at a time. If too wet, add oat flour or protein powder a tablespoon at a time or refrigerate for 15 minutes. 3 Scoop into 20 equal portions using a cookie scoop and roll into balls with slightly damp hands. Really it's optional to roll into balls if you're using a cookie scoop for them already. 4 Eat immediately or refrigerate or freeze in an airtight container.View original recipe
