Cinnamon Protein Energy Bites

These Cinnamon Protein Energy Bites are loaded with nutrients to keep you focused and going and simple to make.

Ingredients

• 20 grams Oats
• 25 grams Oat Flour
• 20 grams Vanilla Protein Powder
• 20 grams Ground Flax Seed
• 20 grams Chia Seeds
• 3 grams Cinnamon
• 100 grams Almond Butter
• 60 grams Maple Syrup
• 15 milliliters Unsweetened Almond Milk (optional, if needed)
• cocoa powder, for dusting

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl combine oats, oat flour, protein powder, ground flax, chia seeds and cinnamon. Fold in the almond butter and maple syrup until a thick dough forms. If it is too thick to work with, add the almond milk.
2. Place the batter into the fridge for 10 minutes to firm up. (Cooling them will make them easier to roll.)
3. Use a tablespoon to scoop out dough and roll into balls. Roll formed balls into cocoa powder if desired. Chill in the fridge for at least 20 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes:

Storage

Keep energy bites in the fridge for up to seven days or freezer for up to three months. Always serve chilled.

Serving Size

One serving is equal to one ball.

Nut-Free

Use sunflower seed butter or pumpkin seed butter instead of almond butter. Use coconut milk instead of almond milk.

Protein Powder

This recipe was developed and tested using a plant-based protein powder.

No Maple Syrup

Use honey instead.

Gluten-Free

Use certified gluten-free quick oats.

No Oats

For best results, these balls need a smaller oat-texture. If you substitute with rolled oats, pulse a few times in a food processor to chop them into a quick oats texture.

No Protein Powder

Use more oat flour instead.
