Ingredients for the Protein Balls:

- 125g peanut butter
- 40g agave syrup or maple syrup
- 1 tbsp desiccated coconut
Method:
- Add all the ingredients into a bowl and mix them with your hands until you get a homogeneous mixture. The dough should be slightly crumbly but still easy to shape.
- With wet hands, shape 12 small balls from the dough.
- Roll the balls in some extra desiccated coconut.
- Store the Protein Energy Balls in an airtight container in the fridge so they hold their shape and last longer.
Are Energy Balls a Good Snack?
These Energy Balls don’t just contain a good amount of protein from our vegan WAM Protein Powder, but they’re also packed with healthy fats from peanut butter. The oats provide valuable carbs and fibre, helping you stay fuller for longer. Agave syrup acts as a natural sweetener, so our Energy Bites are completely free from refined sugar. They’re perfect as a quick snack on the go or as a side to your protein shake.
Our Protein Balls Recipe: Versatile and Flexible
The best part about these Protein Balls is that you can customise them however you like! For example, you can swap out the desiccated coconut for dates or other dried fruits. For chocolate lovers, you could add cocoa powder, cacao nibs, or chocolate chips. You can also easily mix in chopped nuts like almonds or spices like cinnamon—give it a go! You can even freeze the balls for a longer shelf life, so you’ll always have a healthy snack ready to grab.
Our Energy Balls with WAM Protein are the perfect blend of a healthy treat and power balls that give you just the right amount of energy—whether after a workout or as a quick snack during the day. Super delicious, vegan, and super quick to make!
