Description

These almond butter protein balls are the perfect high protein packed snack. They are delicious to eat, and only take 5 minutes to make with no baking required!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup almond butter (I used one with salt added)
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup nonfat milk powder
  • 1/2 cup traditional whole grain rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Begin by lining a plate or cookie sheet or rack with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Add in all the ingredients into a large bowl and combine with a spoon as best as you can. Next, begin to work the dough into a ball with your hands. If it is incredibly sticky, add in a teaspoon at a time of the milk powder until it is easier to work with.
  3. Roll the dough into 1 to 2 inch balls, depending on how large you want them. Place on the parchment lined plate or cookie sheet. Refrigerate for an hour before eating.

Notes

I like to store them in a glass container with a lid and I will snack on them throughout the week.
