Oatmeal Peanut Butter Protein Balls are made with oats, peanut butter, honey, flaxseed, Rice Krispies, coconut oil and vanilla. These are healthy, filling and the best protein ball recipe that I’ve ever tried!

Lately I have really been trying to make sure that I get enough protein each day and I’ve also been making a huge effort to get more protein into my kids too! This can really be a struggle, especially since I have a couple of kids who are extremely picky eaters and don’t really like any type of meat! I know, I know – what’s wrong with them?!?

The answer to this dilemma? Oatmeal Peanut Butter Protein Balls! They are the perfect high protein snack that is both filling and delicious!

I can serve my kids a couple of protein balls along with some fruit for a quick and easy breakfast and I love that it keeps them full for hours! These protein balls are extremely filling and are so easy to take with you as an on-the-go snack and my kids love to pack a few in their school lunches also. When you are busy and don’t have time to sit down and eat a full meal, you can just grab a couple protein balls on your way out the door and have all the energy you need for a few hours without feeling hungry!

DO YOU HAVE TO BAKE PROTEIN BALLS?

No, you do not have to bake protein balls! One of my favorite parts about this snack is that there is no baking or cooking involved at all! Just mix everything together and roll into balls. This recipe is so easy that my kids can all make them without any help and I love having lots of helpers to shape all of the balls!

DO OATMEAL PEANUT BUTTER PROTEIN BALLS TASTE GOOD?

These Oatmeal Peanut Butter Protein Balls are different from other recipes because they are so much yummier than other recipes I’ve tried! A couple of years ago, I tried several different protein ball recipes trying to find one that was pretty healthy and one that all of my kids (and me!) would eat.
