Energy-boosting peanut butter protein balls are a perfect snack for anyone looking to maintain their energy levels throughout the day. Combining the natural protein from peanut butter and whey protein powder with the sustained energy from oats and sunflower seeds, these protein balls are both nutritious and delicious. They are easy to make and can be stored for a quick, on-the-go snack.
- Use natural peanut butter: Opt for natural peanut butter without added sugars or hydrogenated oils to keep your protein balls as healthy as possible.
- Adjust sweetness: If you prefer sweeter protein balls, consider adding a small amount of honey or maple syrup to the mixture.
- Chill before forming: To make the mixture easier to handle, chill it in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes before forming it into balls.
- Customize with add-ins: Feel free to customize the recipe by adding ingredients like dark chocolate chips, dried fruit, or coconut flakes for extra flavor and texture.
- Portion control: Use a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon to ensure your protein balls are uniformly sized for even servings.
- Storage: Store the protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or in the freezer for up to one month.
With just a few simple ingredients, you can prepare these energy-boosting peanut butter protein balls in no time. They are perfect for a pre-workout snack, a midday pick-me-up, or a healthy treat to satisfy your sweet tooth.
