Directions

Step 1

Combine: In a medium bowl, combine gluten-free oats, peanut butter, honey, protein powder, chia seeds (if using), vanilla extract, and salt.

Step 2

Mix: Stir until well combined. The mixture should be slightly sticky. If it’s too dry, add a tablespoon of water or milk at a time until it comes together.

Step 3

Form Bites: Use your hands to roll the mixture into small balls.

Step 4

Chill: Place the bites on a plate lined with parchment paper and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.

Step 5

Store: Store the protein bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Tips & Variations

Add-ins: Get creative with add-ins! Try stirring in chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts), chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or shredded coconut.
Flavor Variations: Use different types of protein powder (chocolate, vanilla, strawberry) or add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg.
Make Ahead: These protein bites can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for a quick and healthy snack.

Important Notes

Gluten-Free Oats: Use certified gluten-free rolled oats to ensure they are safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities.
Protein Powder: Choose a protein powder that fits your dietary needs (whey, plant-based, etc.).
