Ingredients
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats ground in a food processor until about 1/3 the size
- 1/2 cup ground flax seeds
- 1/4 cup cacao nibs ground
- 1 cup Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons chocolate protein powder
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Grind your oats, flax seed, and cocoa nibs separately in a food processor, blender, or coffee grinder. Transfer to a large mixing bowl, then add the Rice Krispies, peanut butter, protein powder, chocolate chips, honey, and maple syrup. Mix until it resembles a dry cookie dough.
- Use a small cookie scoop to scoop balls and lightly pack them together. They should stay in a ball and not break. If it's a little dry, add some honey or coconut oil.
- Place on a baking sheet or in airtight containers and store in the fridge or freezer. Enjoy!
