I saw this recipe of Trisha Yearwood’s show on Food Network. They are great snack to grab before a workout, or for a breakfast on the go. I add chocolate protein powder to up the protein. Recipe and photo courtesy of Food Network.
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
- 1 scoop protein powder
- 1/2 cup raw honey
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup cranberries
- 2 tablespoons flax seed
In a food processor, pulse the oats, peanut butter, honey, chocolate chips, cranberries, protein powder and flax seeds until fully combined. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Form balls from the mixture (about 1 1/2 tablespoons each) and place them on the baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
