Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • ¼ cup freeze-dried strawberries (crushed)

Wet Ingredients

  • ¼ cup cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1–2 tbsp milk (any kind, as needed)

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix rolled oats, almond flour, and vanilla protein powder until evenly distributed.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Incorporate softened cream cheese, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the mixture is fully combined and sticky.
  3. Adjust Consistency: If the dough seems too dry to form balls, slowly add 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk one tablespoon at a time until the mixture reaches a moldable consistency.
  4. Form Balls: Roll the mixture into approximately 1-inch diameter balls and place them on a parchment-lined plate.
  5. Refrigerate to Set: Chill the protein balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up and hold their shape.
  6. Serve or Store: Enjoy immediately after chilling or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Use unsweetened protein powder for less added sugar.
  • Substitute honey with maple syrup to keep the recipe vegan-friendly.
  • If you prefer a crunchier texture, lightly toast the oats before mixing.
  • Freeze the balls for longer storage, up to one month.
  • Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the mixture.
