Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 8 pitted Medjool dates
- 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 Tablespoons dark chocolate chips (I used like Lily’s)
Instructions
- Add dates to a food processor and pulse until they form a thick paste. Add in rolled oats and pulse a few more times until just combined.
- Place date and oat mixture into a bowl. Stir in protein powder and peanut butter. Then add almond milk and stir well to combine. If the mixture seems dry, add an extra splash of almond milk. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Scoop dough from the food processor using a small/medium cookie scoop and form into balls using your hands. You should get about 24 balls.
- Place balls into a sealed storage container and store in the fridge for 1-2 weeks or the freezer for 1-2 months.
