These no-bake bites combine rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, and finely chopped dried apple with warm cinnamon for a chewy, portable snack. A drizzle of honey and nut butter binds everything together without any baking required. They work well for post-workout refueling, lunchbox additions, or a quick breakfast on busy mornings.
Ingredients
- 1 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cups vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 cups dried apple, finely chopped
- 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
- 1/3 cups honey
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoons water, as needed
Method
-
In a large bowl, stir together the rolled oats, protein powder, chopped dried apple, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until evenly combined.
-
Add the peanut butter and honey to the dry mixture and stir until a thick, sticky dough forms, adding water 1 teaspoon at a time if the mixture is too dry to hold together.
-
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for 15 minutes to firm up and make rolling easier.
-
Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of dough per bite and roll firmly between your palms into a smooth ball, repeating with the remaining dough to form about 16 bites.
-
Arrange the bites on a plate or in an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to set before serving.
-
Store leftover bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
