These Oatmeal Protein Balls are easy to make and full of yummy healthy ingredients that the whole family is sure to love. They make the perfect school snack for the kids, mid-day pick-me-up at work, or even paired with yoghurt and fruit for a quick breakfast.

TIP If you are a sweet tooth, try dipping a few balls in melted chocolate or white chocolate for an extra yummy treat. If you are nut sensitive, you can use a seed butter, spread or tahini in place of the almond butter spread. This recipe also suggests our Pure Protein Complete Vanilla Spice, however if you are a chocolate fan, you can even substitute it for our Chocolate Protein Powder option.

NOTE The recipes suggests 3 tbsp of coconut milk, however you are more than welcome to add more as needed until the mixture holds together and is easy to roll into a ball. Be careful not to add too much as the balls will not hold their shape.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients
1½ cups Rolled Oats
½ cup Pure Protein Complete Vanilla Spice (protein powder)
Pinch of Sea Salt (optional, to taste)
2 tbsp shredded or desiccated Coconut
Wet Ingredients
½ cup Almond Butter/spread (or other nut or seed butter/spread)
¼ cup Honey or Maple syrup (to taste)
1 tsp Vanilla Essence (optional)
1 drop Nutmeg essential oil (to taste)
1 drop Cinnamon Bark essential oil (to taste)

1 – 2 tsp Chia Seeds
Melted Chocolate (for dipping the balls in)

Instructions

1. Place all the dry ingredients in a large bowl place and stir well to combine.
2. Add in the wet ingredients except the coconut milk and any of the optional additions and stir to combine. The mixture will be sticky and crumbly.
3. Slowly add in the coconut the coconut milk 1 tbsp at a time. Using your hands, combine the mixture until it holds together. If the mixture is too dry add a little more coconut milk and mix again. Do not add too much liquid or the balls will not hold their shape.
4. You can use a tablespoon/scoop to measure the oat mixture so they are the same size. Roll the balls by hand and chill for at least 25 – 30 minutes to help them set before serving. You can keep this refrigerated for up to 1 week.
