I always bring protein balls for snacks! They can be whipped up in a matter of minutes as long as you have a few key ingredients (dates, oats, nuts/seeds). The inspiration for these came from a hectic morning throwing things together and it turned out so delicious I had to share.
Ingredients:
- 10 Medjool dates
- 1 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips
- 2/3 cup Oats
- pinch of sea salt
- 3-4 Tablespoons natural peanut butter
Directions:
- Combine all ingredients (except peanut butter) in a food processor and process until it is your preferred texture (I like processing it until it’s fine).
- Pour the mixture into a bowl and stir in the peanut butter. Start with 3 Tablespoons and if it’s difficult to roll into balls, add the 4th Tablespoon.
- Roll into balls and enjoy!
Store in the fridge or freezer.
