Large Batch Protein Balls Ingredients

  • Rolled oats

  • Natural Peanut Butter, (mine is pretty runny, if you have regular, heating it up in the microwave for a bit will help with mixing)

  • Protein Powder (use any variety you see fit!)

  • Honey

  • Mix-ins (I used mini chocolate chips)

  • Ground Flax seed (optional, I did not use in this recipe. If you do, you can use up to 1/4 cup)


Large Protein Balls Yield

This recipe makes approximately 50-60 protein balls, depending on the size. I used a size 50 cookie scoop. Each protein ball was a heaping scoop worth.


Large Protein Balls Storage

  • Refrigerator: Up to one month

  • Freezer: Up to 3 months.


Large Protein Balls Flavor Variations

One of the best things about this recipe is how easy it is to customize. I try to keep the mix-ins to around 1 cup combined.


Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip

  • Add extra chocolate chips

  • Use chocolate protein powder

Monster Cookie

  • Add mini M&Ms

  • Stir in ½ cup chopped peanuts

Coconut Almond

  • Add ½ cup shredded coconut

  • Use almond butter instead of peanut butter

Double Chocolate

  • Add 2 tablespoons cocoa powder

  • Use chocolate protein powder


Tips for Perfect Protein Balls

  • If the mixture sticks to your hands, lightly wet your hands or spray with non-stick spray before rolling.

  • If the mixture feels too sticky, add a few tablespoons of oats.

  • If it's too dry, add a little more peanut butter or honey.


Perfect for:

  • Post-workout snacks

  • Busy mornings

  • Lunchbox treats

  • Afternoon energy boosts

  • Road trip snacks
