Servings: 30 balls
Calories: 164kcal
Ingredients
- 3 cups old fashioned oats
- 2 cups peanut butter I use natural, salted
- 1 cup vanilla protein powder see the Notes for my favorite brand
- ½ cup honey
- dash of salt
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the oats and protein powder.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, honey, and salt.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until combined. I start with a wooden spatula and usually roll up my sleeves and finish with my hands.
- Roll into ~2 tablespoon sized balls. Alternately, you can press into a 9" pan to make bars.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Storage - you can store these at room temperature or the refrigerator in an airtight container. They will keep longer in the refrigerator, about 2 weeks. You can also freeze them and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Type of Protein - I have only made these with Clean Simple Eats Vanilla Protein, which is a whey protein, but you could use whatever type of vanilla protein powder you like.
