Peanut butter protein power balls are an excellent and delicious way to get a quick boost of energy and protein. Perfect for busy mornings, post-workout snacks, or a healthy treat, they combine the goodness of oats, peanut butter, whey protein, and honey into a convenient, no-bake ball.

Instructions:
Ensure your work area is clean and all your ingredients are measured out for easy access.
In a large mixing bowl, add 1/2 cup of oats and 2 scoops of whey protein powder. Stir them together until they are evenly mixed.
Add 1/2 cup of peanut butter to the dry mixture, followed by 2 tablespoons of honey. Make sure to use a spatula or spoon to get every last bit out of your measuring tools.
Using a sturdy spoon or your hands, blend the ingredients together. You should combine them until a thick, uniform dough forms. You may need to use your hands to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Scoop out approximately 1-2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a ball. Continue this process until you've used up all the dough. You should end up with about 10-12 balls, depending on the size.
Place the balls on a plate or baking sheet, and put them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up. This step is optional but helps them hold their shape better, especially in warmer climates.
Transfer the chilled peanut butter protein power balls to an airtight container. You can store them in the refrigerator for up to a week.
When you're ready for a healthy snack, just grab a ball and enjoy the delicious blend of peanut butter, oats, and protein! These make a perfect post-workout snack or midday energy boost.
Tips:
- For a smoother texture, blend the oats into oat flour before mixing.
- Feel free to add in some mix-ins like chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruits for extra flavor and texture.
- Use a cookie scoop to ensure evenly sized balls.
- Chill the mixture in the fridge for 20-30 minutes before rolling to make it easier to handle.
- Store the power balls in an airtight container in the fridge; they can last up to a week.
Peanut butter protein power balls are a simple and tasty way to fuel your day. With minimal ingredients and no baking required, they are an easy recipe that packs a nutritional punch. Customize them to your liking and enjoy a healthy snack any time!
