Monster Cookie Dough Protein Balls
These monster cookie dough protein balls are quick, easy, and seriously addictive—so watch out! You won’t want to eat just one.
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter (I recommend using natural or organic. See notes at the end of the recipe for more information.)
- 3/4 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- 3/4 cup vanilla protein powder (I only used Eniva Clean & Natural Grass Fed 100% Protein Isolate Powder. See notes at the end of the recipe if using a different powder.)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 Tbsp mini chocolate chips
- 3 Tbsp mini M&M's
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until well incorporated.
- Line a cookie or baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using your hands, roll the dough into balls slightly smaller than a golf ball and place them on the pan.
- Once all the dough is rolled into balls, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Enjoy! Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for up to 3 months. If frozen, thaw in the fridge before eating.
Notes
The consistency of the dough should resemble typical cookie dough—neither too dry nor too sticky. Depending on the protein powder and peanut butter you use, you may need to adjust measurements. If the dough is too dry, add a bit more peanut butter; if it’s too wet or sticky, mix in more protein powder. I recommend starting with the listed measurements and adjusting as needed to get the perfect texture.
