Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, and protein powder. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Blend Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and creamy.
  3. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the blueberries into the cream cheese mixture, taking care not to crush them.
  4. Mix Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough-like consistency forms.
  5. Form Protein Bites: Scoop out portions of the mixture with a tablespoon and roll them into small balls with your hands.
  6. Refrigerate: Place the protein bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  7. Store: Store the bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze them for longer storage.

Notes

  • You can substitute the vanilla protein powder with any preferred flavor to change the taste profile.
  • If you prefer sweeter bites, adjust the honey or maple syrup quantity to taste.
  • Using frozen blueberries is fine; just thaw them slightly to avoid excess moisture.
  • For a vegan version, swap cream cheese and Greek yogurt with plant-based alternatives and ensure the protein powder is vegan.
  • To make the bites crunchier, toast the oats lightly before mixing.
