Description
If you aren’t enjoying tahini on a regular basis, you’re missing out. These tahini chocolate chip protein balls are perfect if you have a nut allergy or just want to try a new flavor combination.
Ingredients
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup tahini
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 scoops (64 grams) vanilla protein powder
- 2 Tablespoons mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Place oats, tahini, honey, protein powder and chocolate chips in a large bowl and stir to combine.
- Getting the mixture to combine takes a little arm muscle and it may seem too thick 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.

So glad you love these protein balls, Liz! Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
I really want to try these but I don’t have the protein powder. Do you think I could replace it with PBfit powder or the peanut butter taste would overpower the tahini? I only buy vanilla protein drink. Maybe replace the honey with it???
Hey Brigitte – I would make these no-bake energy balls instead since you don’t have protein powder. You can easily swap the peanut butter with tahini. 🙂
Great recipe! I love that these don’t even need a food processor. This is the third time I’m making these since I saw this post a month ago 🙂
