Power Protein Balls

Power Protein Balls

**Note - these are Paleo compliant, but not Whole 30

Makes 24-36 (depending on size of ball you make)

1 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)

¼ cup honey

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 ½ cups oatmeal

½ cup unsweetened coconut flakes

½ cup raisins

¼ cup sunflower seeds

2 Tbsp flaxseed, hemp seeds or chia seeds (I change this up every time I make it) - optional

¼ cup cacao nibs (or you can use mini chocolate chips)

Instructions:

Put almond butter and honey in microwave for 1 minute.  Mix together and add vanilla extract.  Mix the rest of the ingredients with the almond butter/honey.  Place parchment (or wax paper) on baking sheet.  Wet your hands with water before you roll the protein balls (so the mixture doesn’t stick to your hands).  Place the balls on the parchment paper and once done put all in the freezer to set.  Michael likes to eat them frozen but you can keep in the fridge if you prefer.  Enjoy!!!
