Protein coconut balls are a delicious, healthy snack packed with nutrients and easy to customize. Here’s a step-by-step guide to making them.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup rolled oats (or quick oats for a smoother texture)
- ½ cup protein powder (vanilla or unflavored works best)
- ⅓ cup coconut flakes (plus extra for rolling)
- ¼ cup nut butter (peanut, almond, or cashew)
- 2–3 tbsp maple syrup or honey (for sweetness)
- 1–2 tbsp milk (dairy or plant-based)
- Optional: 1 tbsp chia seeds or dark chocolate chips
Instructions:
1. Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, combine oats, protein powder, and coconut flakes.
2. Add wet ingredients: Stir in nut butter, maple syrup, and milk. Mix until a thick, dough-like forms. If too dry, add a splash more milk; too wet, add a bit more oats.
3. Shape the balls: Roll tablespoon-sized portions into balls using your hands. For extra crunch, roll each ball in additional coconut flakes.
4. Chill: Place on a tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
Variations:
- Add cocoa powder for chocolate flavor.
- Use crushed nuts or dried fruit for texture.
- For a vegan version, substitute honey with agave nectar.
These balls store well in the fridge for up to a week, making them a perfect grab-and-go snack! Enjoy your homemade, protein-packed treat.
