Protein Balls aka "cookie balls"



Main 3:
3/4 c. Peanut Butter
1/2 c. Honey
2 c. oats

Possible Add-ins:
mini choc. chips, craisins, cinnamon, coconut, PB chips, butterscotch chips, handful of crunched cereal such as Cinnamon Toast Crunch or Cocoa Pebbles (to add a crunchy texture), protein powder, dry milk, vanilla extract, etc.

Mix, mix, mix, and then roll into balls. Put in fridge to chill.

This recipe is a little hard to do measurements, so the amounts above are an estimate.  The combination of the main 3 ingredients should get to the consistency where you can roll the mixture into balls easily without being sticky.  To have less of a PB taste, you can use more honey and less PB and you will still get the consistency you need.  Tip: if you add in vanilla extract, put PB, honey, and vanilla in first and mix together to allow the vanilla to mix evenly.
