Why Protein Balls?
Protein balls are a simple way to combine nutrients and energy in a handy format. They’re usually made with a base of oats or nuts, a scoop of plant-based protein powder, and a binding or sweetening ingredient such as agave or dates. The result: a satisfying snack that supports you and keeps you going for longer.
Our version brings fruity freshness with lemon and berries, while WAM Pure Vanilla Protein adds that extra hit of protein.
