Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups rolled oats (or 1 cup oats and ¼ cup protein powder)
- 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
- ¼ cup sprouted pumpkin seeds (regular is fine I just prefer sprouted)
- ½ cup natural runny peanut butter
- ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup vegan chocolate chips
- flakey sea salt (optional)
Instructions
- Start by adding the oats, hemp seeds and pumpkin seeds to a blender and blend into a rough flour.
- Add the blended mixture to a bowl, mix in the peanut butter, maple syrup and vanilla, stir well.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and roll into balls, I like to use a small cookie scooper but it's not necessary as you can actually make these balls any size you like. I got 16 balls but you can make them bigger or small per your preference. Sprinkle on the flakey sea salt if you are using it, I think it takes it to the next level of YUM!
- Store in a container in the fridge up to 1 week.

Notes
Protein: If you choose to add a scoop of protein powder to these balls I recommend replacing ¼ cup of the oats with a ¼ cup of protein powder. If you do not replace and just add the protein powder they will be dry so you must replace not add.
