Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
- 1/2 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)
- 1/2 cup oat flour (or regular flour)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
- Pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the protein powder, oat flour, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and milk. Stir until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well until the dough comes together and feels creamy but firm.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips for extra sweetness and texture.
- If the dough seems too dry, add a splash of milk. If it’s too wet, sprinkle in a bit more oat flour.
- For firmer dough, refrigerate for 15–20 minutes. This step is optional but great for rolling the dough into bite-sized balls.
Notes
[‘Choose a protein powder with a smooth texture for best results.’, ‘Room-temperature almond butter mixes more easily.’, ‘Customize with mix-ins like nuts, shredded coconut, or dried fruit.’, ‘Refrigerating the dough helps firm it up for rolling into balls.’]
