No Bake Peanut Butter Protein Balls

This is probably one of the easiest things I’ve ever made, and cleanup wasn’t bad either (eating the parts I didn’t roll up was pretty awesome). I just washed a spoon, a mixing bowl, and a measuring cup. Besides being simple, you can soup em’ up with all kinds of stuff (e.g. cocoa powder, chocolate, cinnamon, coconut flakes, chopped nuts…).

I chose not to for this batch since my protein powder was already chocolate-flavored, but I’m probably going to make this again pretty soon with dry milk powder. We’ll see how that one goes. I’ll probably dress those up a bit too! :D Generally speaking though, anything with peanut butter, oatmeal + honey is usually a win for me. Super easy, super fast, packed with protein, tastes pretty effing amazing. :D
