No-bake blueberry muffin-inspired protein balls made with chewy oats, vanilla protein, and real blueberries for a nutritious snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup rolled oats (old‑fashioned oats)
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • 1/2 cup almond butter or peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (thawed if frozen)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Whisk briefly so dry ingredients are evenly mixed.
  2. Add the almond or peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir with a sturdy spoon or spatula until the mixture becomes cohesive.
  3. Fold in the blueberries gently, being careful not to crush them.
  4. Scoop the mixture with a tablespoon or small cookie scoop (about 1 inch diameter) and roll between your palms into balls. Aim for 12–16 balls depending on size.
  5. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate in a single layer.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up. For quicker setting, freeze for 10–15 minutes.
