Ingredients

  • 1 cup quick oats
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup coconut flakes
  • 1/2 cup roasted sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 cup Syntrax Nectar Sweets Chocolate Truffle Whey Protein Isolate Powder (vanilla works perfectly as well)
  • 1/2 cup mini dark chocolate chips
  • Additional items to roll them in: seeds, ground flax seed, mini chips, cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Stir all ingredients together in a medium bowl until thoroughly mixed. Use your muscles here.
  2. When it gets too tough to stir with a spoon, use your clean hands.
  3. Chill in fridge for an hour.
  4. Once chilled, roll into 1” sized balls.
  5. At this point you can leave ‘em nekkid or you can roll them in toppings.
  6. Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.

Notes

You can substitute in pretty much any healthy snack. If you don’t like peanut butter try a different nut butter.
You can use pretty much any dried fruit, nut, chips, grains (use rice cereal maybe).
Ground flax seed or wheat germ is awesome in this.
If you omit one dry ingredient you must put in another dry ingredient in this place.
If they feel a tad dry, add in more honey or peanut butter.
You don’t have to keep these in the fridge, but I prefer them cold.

You can also make these into bars but pressing them in a 9×13″ parchment lined pan.

Typical serving is 2 as a snack or post-workout treat
