Place oats, cashew butter, honey, protein powder, raisins and cinnamon in a large bowl and stir to combine.
Getting the mixture to combine takes a little arm muscle and it may seem a little crumbly at first, but it will come together as you keep mixing. I used my hands to knead the dough near the end and that seems to help.
Once combined, use a small cookie scoop to scoop and form the dough into balls.
Store in a covered container in the fridge or freezer.
I used 2 scoops MRE meal replacement oatmeal cookie protein powder, 2 tsp cinnamon, almond butter(couldn’t find cashew butter at the store) and mini chocolate chips since my son doesn’t like raisins that much. I make these for work and school snacks about 2-3 a month. They are great!
These are so easy to make and taste delicious! I love the simplicity. The flavor is spot on with an oatmeal raisin cookie. Plus the texture is a cookie dough fake out, in a good way! (I prefer cookie dough to baked cookies any day of the week)
Ah yay! So happy to hear this protein balls were a hit, Charity. Thanks so much for trying them and coming back to leave a review. I really appreciate it!
I’ve made many of Brittany’s energy ball recipes, and this one continues to be my favorite! I am a huge fan of oatmeal raisin cookies, and these taste just like them, only you don’t feel guilty after eating them!!
We made these as well as the chocolate peanut butter and my husband actually favored the Oatmeal Raisin. This was a pleasant surprise! I used a gingerbread almond butter that was of a dryer texture so I needed to add a splash of milk. Then they were perfect.
Hi May! That’s not a problem. You can use another nut butter. I’d recommend almond butter since it’s flavor is a bit milder than peanut butter and you’ll still be able to taste the cinnamon cookie flavor.

Hello, Brittany,
I can’t wait to make these! Only problem, I don’t care for cashew butter. Do you have another suggested nut butter I can use?
