# Ingredients Required:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1–2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk, add as needed
02 -
1/4 cup mini dark chocolate chips
03 -
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
04 -
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
05 -
2 tablespoons honey
06 -
1 cup almond butter
07 -
1/2 cup rolled oats
# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Once you're all done, pop your protein balls into an airtight container. They'll be happy in your fridge for a week.
02 -
Lay out your balls on a tray covered with parchment paper. Stick ’em in the fridge for about 20 minutes till they firm up.
03 -
Scoop out portions with your tablespoon, then roll between your hands to make neat little balls.
04 -
Gently mix the mini chocolate chips into the dough so there's chocolatey goodness in every bite.
05 -
If your mix seems crumbly, add almond milk—just a bit at a time—so it sticks together and isn't dry.
06 -
Dump in the oats, almond butter, honey, protein powder, and peppermint. Stir well so everything's blended and doughy.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Go vegan by swapping honey for maple syrup.
02 -
Dough too sticky? Chill it in the fridge five or ten minutes before rolling.
03 -
Make it more or less minty—just add more or less peppermint extract.
04 -
Toss in chia or flax seeds to pump up the protein and fiber.
