Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup cookie butter spread (Biscoff-style)
- ¼ cup softened cream cheese
- ½ cup vanilla-flavored protein powder
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prep Everything First: Measure out all ingredients and set them within reach. This makes mixing quick and mess-free.
- Create the Creamy Base: Add the cookie butter and cream cheese to a large bowl. Blend until completely smooth and uniform using a spatula or hand mixer.
- Build the Dough: Stir in the protein powder, oats, almond flour, and cinnamon. Mix well until the dough starts to come together. If it feels too thick or crumbly, add a splash of milk or water to loosen it slightly.
- Adjust the Sweetness: Drizzle in the honey or maple syrup and mix thoroughly. Give it a quick taste and tweak the sweetness if needed.
- Shape the Bites: Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them between your hands to form balls. Continue until all the dough is used—you’ll end up with roughly 12–15 bites.
- Chill to Set: Arrange the protein balls on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes so they firm up.
- Store and Enjoy: Once set, move them to a sealed container. Keep refrigerated for up to one week or freeze for up to one month for longer storage.
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
