Instructions

Measure and mix the rolled oats, peanut butter, honey, protein powder, and chocolate chips in a bowl until well combined.
Scoop the mixture into tablespoon-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined sheet.
Chill the balls in the fridge or freezer for at least 10 minutes or until firm.

Notes

For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup and use dairy-free chocolate chips.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week or freeze for up to three months for longer shelf life.
If the mixture is too sticky, lightly dust your hands with oats or flour when forming the balls.
