Ingredients
- 1 cup natural unsalted peanut butter
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cup vanilla protein powder
- 0.5 cup honey
- 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine natural unsalted peanut butter, rolled oats, and vanilla protein powder. Stir until ingredients are well distributed.
Step 2
Add honey and vanilla extract to the mixture. Continue stirring until the mixture is sticky and all ingredients are uniformly mixed.
Step 3
Stir in ground flaxseed to add a boost of nutrition and bind the mixture. If using, fold in dark chocolate chips for an extra touch of sweetness.
Step 4
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
Step 5
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into small balls or clusters and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Press gently if you prefer a flatter shape.
Step 6
Once all clusters are formed, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Step 7
After chilling, the clusters are ready to be enjoyed. Keep any leftovers stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
