Protein Balls

INGREDIENTS:

• 150g porridge oats

• 50g protein powder (I use organic whey protein isolate)

• 1 tbsp ground flaxseed

• Pinch of cinnamon powder

• 2 tbsp maple syrup

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 150g nut butter of your choice

• 4 tbsp plant milk (I use coconut)

METHOD:

• Combine the oats, protein powder, flaxseed and cinnamon in a large bowl and mix well. Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, nut butter and milk.

• Stir well to combine the mixture, then with damp hands, roll into 15 balls (they should be about 30g each).

• Arrange on a plate and chill for 30 mins until firm, then serve.

These protein-rich balls offer a convenient snack option for between meals, particularly when you're juggling a hectic schedule with an intense training session, or even multiple sessions in a single day. With approximately 7g of protein per ball, they help you reach your optimal protein intake, supporting growth and recovery post-exercise.
