Ingredients

1 cup - natural peanut butter
⅓ cup - maple syrup
⅔ cup - rolled oats
⅓ cup - vanilla whey protein powder sub with plant-based
¼ cup - flaxseed meal
⅓ cup - mini dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Line a rimmed baking sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper and set aside.
Place the peanut butter and maple syrup and vanilla in a medium bowl and stir until well combined. If the peanut butter is not soft, microwave it for about 20 seconds to soften it before adding the maple syrup.
Add the oats, protein powder and flaxseed meal to the peanut butter mixture and stir until well incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Using a 1 1/2" cookie scoop, scoop out the mixture and roll it into balls until you've used it all. Place the protein balls on the prepared pan and chill 20-30 minutes as needed. If they're firm enough, they may be eaten immediately. Enjoy!
