Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, and ground flaxseed. Stir to mix the dry ingredients evenly.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, gently heat the low-fat peanut butter to make it easier to mix, about 10-15 seconds.

Fold in the mini dark chocolate chips and salt, mixing until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into 1-inch balls. Place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.

Once all the balls are formed, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up.
