Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned or quick)
½ cup vanilla plant-based protein powder
½ cup almond butter (or sunflower seed butter)
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
½ cup dried blueberries
1 tbsp chia seeds
½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp sea salt
Instructions
Combine rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
Add almond butter and maple syrup, mixing until fully incorporated.
Fold in dried blueberries, then stir in vanilla extract.
Using a tablespoon, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet.
Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
