Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup protein powder (strawberry or vanilla flavor)
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened) Ensure at room temperature for easier mixing
  • 1/4 cup almond butter Can substitute with peanut butter or sunflower seed butter
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup diced strawberries Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Preparation
  1. Gather all the ingredients mentioned above and chop the strawberries into small, even pieces.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well.
  3. Add the softened cream cheese, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), diced strawberries, and vanilla extract into the bowl.
  4. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined; the mixture should be slightly sticky yet hold together.
  5. Roll small amounts of the mixture into bite-sized balls, about 1-inch in diameter.
  6. Place the protein balls on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
