A simple and protein-packed snack that is great for pre or post-workout. It is made with only 4 ingredients!
These are a crowd favorite because they are easy, convenient, and simple. You can make a batch for the whole week and just have them stored in your fridge whenever you need a snack for pre or post-workout! These are also great if you struggle with getting enough protein or just do not like protein shakes. Protein balls are always my go-to when I want a quick snack because they come together in 10 minutes and require only 4 ingredients. Feel free to double the batch!

What You Need To Make These
Equipment
- Large bowl

Bites
- Almond Flour- You can also use oat flour if you are not gluten-free.
- Chocolate Protein Powder- Any protein powder of your choice will work! I like Legion, you can use my DC: FITFAN
- Chocolate Nut Butter- I used cashew butter, but you can use almond, peanut, or even sunflower! Just make sure the ingredients are simple and natural with no added junk.
- Chocolate Chips- I like using HU.
How To Make These
- In a large bowl combine the oat flour, protein powder, and nut butter.
- Mix until a doughy consistency forms. If it is too dry add more date syrup, if the texture is too wet, add more protein powder or almond flour.

- Eat straight away or store in an air-tight container for the week!
