Protein packed snack with quick-oats, protein meal replacement, almond butter, cocoa nibs, raisins, and unsweetened coconut flakes.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 Tablespoon hot water
  • 1 cup quick-cooking old-fashioned oats. If you don’t have quick-cooking old-fashioned oats use the food processor for a fine oat.
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 3/4 cup coarsely chopped raisins
  • 1/4 cup cocoa nibs
  • 1/2 cup creamy almond butter (or peanut butter)
  • 1/2 cup Naked Protein Meal Replacement or your favorite plain or vanilla protein powder.


Instructions

  1. Stir together honey, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, and hot water in a medium bowl until smooth and incorporated.
  2. Stir in oats and coconut and let sit for 10 minutes.
  3. Fold in raisins, cocoa nibs, almond butter, and protein powder. Stir thoroughly to combine.
  4. Scoop about a Tablespoon amount of the mixture and roll into balls with your hands. Transfer to a plate or baking sheet.
  5. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

Bites can be made 10 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill, or freeze for up to 3 months.

You can add more protein powder if you want, and then you just may need to add a little more water as well.
