Chocolate Protein Bliss Balls

This are a true treat for your body. Full of goodness that will keep you feeling satisfied whilst nourishing your body with what it needs to flourish. I hope you love them as much as we do. Feel free to tweak them by adding more dates for sweetness. or using almond or cashew butter instead of peanut butter, or flax instead of chia seeds.

Ingredients

1 cup oats
1 tbsp chia seeds
3-4 medjool dates If using dried dates, soak in a little water first.
1 scoop protein powder I use Organic Vanilla Whey, or a vegan chocolate one, but note if it has added sweeteners as it affects the taste
1 tbsp peanut butter (heaped if you are looking for a richer taste) You can use any nut butters.
1 tbsp chia seed (or flax) (I like to pre-soak now, but have added dry)
1 tbsp cacao powder
pinch sea salt (optional)
1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
a little water (if too dry to bind)

Instructions

Put all the ingredients in the blender. Blend. Add a little water or the date water if too dry to lump together.
Either make into balls straight away, or place in the fridge and then make into balls as it's less sticky when cold.
