Ingredients required to make delicious chocolate and peanut butter protein balls
- 1 scoop of Chocolate Vegan Complete Protein
- 50g/½ cup rolled oats
- 3 tbsp peanut butter
- ½ tbsp raw cacao powder
- 1 tbsp flaxseed
- 1 tbsp chia seed
- 1 tbsp agave sweetener or maple syrup
- 1-2 tbsp non-dairy milk
Instructions
- Place all of the ingredients into a bowl, then mix together really well.
- You may need to add a little more non-dairy milk if your choice of peanut butter is a little dry - you should be able to easily squeeze the mixture into balls.
- Try to divide the mixture into equal amounts to make around 8-10 balls.
- Take each amount and slowly roll it around in your hands until you have created the size/shape you prefer.
- Store in an airtight container for 5-7 days preferably in the fridge, until ready to use
Depending upon your choice of ingredients, each batch should provide in excess of 50g of vegan protein and around 600-700 calories (PLEASE NOTE: These figures can vary dramatically if you choose higher calorie ingredients).
