Instructions:
1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine all the ingredients for your chosen protein ball flavor. Use a spoon to mix until the ingredients form a dough-like consistency. Adjust the moisture by adding more water or dry ingredients as needed.
2. Before rolling the dough into balls, taste it to ensure the desired sweetness. You can adjust the flavor by adding more syrup, a pinch of sea salt, or additional dry ingredients.
3. Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion the dough and roll it between your hands to form balls. Place the balls in a large food storage container.
4. Refrigerate the protein balls for up to one week, or freeze them for up to 3 months. Note that they won't harden completely in the freezer, making them perfect for quick enjoyment.
Notes:
- For added nutrition, feel free to incorporate a tablespoon of flax, hemp, or chia seeds into the recipe.
- Experiment with different nut butter variations based on your preference. If using unsalted nut butter, consider adding a pinch of sea salt for enhanced flavor.
- This recipe suggests using 1/2 scoop of protein powder (about 15 grams) to balance the flavor. Adjust the amount to your liking for a higher protein content.
- To achieve uniform protein balls, a small cookie scoop works well. You can also adjust the size to create 1-bite protein balls, ideal for on-the-go snacking during outdoor activities.
