I just discovered the protein balls. The ones I tried were homemade, with almonds, cranberries, oat and dates.
It was so good that I started to look at recipes to make my very own easy-to-make protein balls.
I gather the ingredients and on a rainy Sunday, I started mixing and rolling.
Ingredients and proportions
- 1 1/4 cup, oat by Bob’s Red Mill
- 2 table spoons, chia seeds by Bob’s Red Mill
- 1/2 cup, peanut butter or YumButter (ma favorite is cashew butter)
- 1/3 cup, açaí honey from Apiterra Honey
- and some cacao nibs, almonds and dried unsweetened mango
How to do it?
- Pour the oat, chia seeds, peanut butter and honey in a bowl and mix
- Keep mixing
- Leave in the fridge during 20′, they are less sticky to roll
- Then add the cacao nibs, almonds and dried mango
- Start rolling
- Store in the freeze for up to 7 days (if you didn’t eat them all the same day)
I eat them as a snack, with with chia pudding, as a desert … it’s sooo goood.
