Ingredients

  • Peanut Butter: 1/2 cup – Adds a creamy, nutty base to the bites, providing a rich flavor and healthy fats.
  • Protein Powder: 1/2 cup – The star ingredient, giving these bites a protein boost. Choose vanilla or chocolate flavor for best results.
  • Honey: 2 tablespoons – Natural sweetness to balance out the flavors.
  • Oats: 1/2 cup – For a chewy texture and added fiber.
  • Dark Chocolate: 1/4 cup – For a rich, decadent coating that gives the bites a sweet finish.

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Set your microwave or double boiler to melt the chocolate.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the peanut butter, protein powder, honey, and oats. Stir until everything is well combined.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Line a small baking tray or dish with parchment paper for easy removal.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Shape the mixture into small bite-sized squares or balls and place them on the prepared baking tray.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave or double boiler, then dip each bite into the chocolate to coat.

  7. Serve and Enjoy: Refrigerate the bites for at least 30 minutes before enjoying.

Notes

  • Let the bites chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before eating to help them set.
  • If you want a smoother texture, you can blend the peanut butter and oats in a food processor before mixing.
  • Feel free to use your preferred protein powder flavor, but vanilla or chocolate works best for these bites.
