Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Protein Bites (2-ways, GF, DF, Vegan)

HOLY guys!! I am beyond excited about this recipe. I made one similar YEARS ago and it was good…. it would’ve been better with a different protein lol.

I am amazed by 1Up Nutrition’s protein every time I do something new with it. I used their Peanut Butter Blast whey protein. If you use my code “littlecarillo”, it’ll save you an additional 20% off!

I mentioned in the notes section below how to make this gluten free or vegan friendly! With a few swaps, this can fit just about any diet.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • ¼ Cup Peanut Butter I used all natural
  • ¼ Cup Mini Chocolate Chips
  • Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk Can use regular **See instructions for amount
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 40 grams Chocolate Whey Protein Powder *Can use any protein but the consistency might change
  • 1/4 Tsp Salt

Instructions
 

  • Mix together peanut butter, chocolate chips, oats, vanilla, salt, and protein powder
  • Once mixed and crumbly, slowly add a splash or two of milk of choice and mix until you form a sticky ball. It will still be on the dry side. You don't want mush here
  • Form dough into little balls OR flatten on a non-stick or sprayed cookie sheet for bars
  • Let dough set in the fridge and firm up before eating. Cut the bars and enjoy!
  • Store in an air tight container in the fridge

Notes

Vegan version, swap the protein to a vegan protein and chocolate chips.
Gluten free version, use a gluten free oat brand you trust (these may not always be 100% gluten free due to cross-contamination)
 
APRROXIMATE
Macros: 7c/4f/4p each ball
Macros will vary depending how many bars you make.

    […] Protein Oat Bites have been a life saver. Sometimes I get too caught up with what I’m doing and “in the zone” that I forget to eat until my stomach is yelling at me. I am in love with these little guys. They are so easy to make and quick to grab when I need a fast snack. I definitely plan to make these for our camping trip next month to snack on in the car and on our hike. […]
