Description

Naturally sweet and protein-packed, these no-bake blueberry protein balls are made with oats, almond butter, dried blueberries, and vanilla protein powder. They make the perfect quick and healthy snack for any time of day.


Ingredients

1 cup old-fashioned oats

1/2 cup almond butter

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/3 cup vanilla protein powder

1/2 cup dried blueberries

1/4 cup ground flaxseed

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

12 tablespoons water (if needed for consistency)


Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, protein powder, flaxseed, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Add almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
  3. Fold in the dried blueberries until evenly distributed.
  4. If the mixture is too dry or crumbly, add water one tablespoon at a time until it holds together when pressed.
  5. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls using your hands and place them on a parchment-lined tray.
  6. Chill the protein balls in the refrigerator for 20–30 minutes to firm up.
  7. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes

Use maple syrup and plant-based protein powder to keep it vegan.

Substitute dried blueberries with cranberries, cherries, or chopped dates.

Add chopped nuts or shredded coconut for extra texture.

Try chocolate protein powder or a pinch of cinnamon for flavor variation.

No reheating needed—grab and enjoy straight from the fridge or freezer.
