Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • spatula or wooden spoon
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • Rolled Oats 1.5 Cups
  • Protein Powder 1/2 Cup
  • Instant Coffee Powder 2 Tbsp
  • Almond Butter 1/2 Cup
  • Honey 1/3 Cup
  • Chia Seeds 1 Tbsp
  • Dark Chocolate Chips 1/4 Cup

Instructions
 

  • Mix your dry ingredients in the large bowl. Add the oats, protein powder, and coffee. Stir them until the color is very even.
  • Add the almond butter and honey now. Pour them right into the center of the bowl. These wet items will bind the dough.
  • Stir the mixture with your sturdy spatula. Keep folding until a thick dough forms. Ensure no dry flour remains at the bottom.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and chia seeds. Distribute them evenly throughout the coffee dough. This ensures every bite has a crunch.
  • Scoop one tablespoon of dough at a time. Roll the dough between your palms into balls. Place each ball on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Put the tray in the fridge for thirty minutes. This helps the protein balls become firm. They will be easier to eat after chilling.

Notes

  • Use fresh instant coffee for the very best aroma.
  • Wet your hands slightly to stop the dough sticking.
  • Press the dough firmly to make solid protein balls.
  • Add a splash of water if dough is dry.
  • Use mini chocolate chips for better distribution in bites.
