Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup protein powder (Clean Simple Eats Vanilla recommended)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup almond milk

Mix-Ins

  • 2/3 cup chopped mini Cadbury eggs

Instructions

  1. Combine dry and wet ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, protein powder, natural peanut butter, maple syrup, and almond milk. Mix well using a fork or spoon until all ingredients are fully combined into a sticky dough-like mixture.
  2. Fold in candy pieces: Gently fold the chopped mini Cadbury eggs into the mixture to evenly distribute the chocolate pieces without breaking them down too much.
  3. Shape protein balls: Using a small ice cream scoop or spoon, portion out the mixture into 18-20 equal-sized balls. Wet your hands slightly to roll each portion into smooth, compact spheres to prevent sticking.
  4. Chill to set: Place the protein balls onto a plate or pan and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This chilling step helps the balls firm up and hold their shape.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Once chilled and set, the protein balls are ready to eat as a nutritious snack or quick bite anytime.

Notes

  • Use natural peanut butter without added sugar for the best flavor balance.
  • Maple syrup can be substituted with honey if preferred.
  • Ensure the mini Cadbury eggs are chopped finely enough for easy mixing and even distribution.
  • Store leftover protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • To customize, swap vanilla protein powder with chocolate or other flavors of your choice.
