Diese Erdbeer-Proteinbällchen are the best fruity protein snack to fix your sweet tooth and fill you up with 6 Gramm Protein per energy ball.
I love creating protein bites recipes because it’s an easy way to eat something sweet, small, and filling. I have recently shared some delicious healthy energy ball flavors like my Kürbis-Proteinbällchen , vegan protein balls, but both were made from rolled oats.
For this recipe, I used almond flour as a high-protein gluten-free flour, like in my cookie dough protein balls, to create a healthy snack packed with healthy fats, perfect as a pre-workout snack.

Zutaten und Substitutionen
- Almond Flour or oat flour - lesen wie man Hafermehl herstellt from rolled oats. Oat flour is also great for making energy bites; it has fewer calories but less protein. Plus, it’s higher in fiber, so you may need more almond milk to form the dough.
- Gefriergetrocknete Erdbeeren – This ingredient adds the strawberry flavor and color. Mine are unsweetened and sliced, and I like to pulse them for a few seconds in a food processor to create a mix of powder and pieces. You can also place them in a zip-lock bag and smash them with a rolling pin.
- Vanilla Pea Protein Powder – or if you find a plant-based strawberry protein powder you love, go for it and skip the strawberry extract.
- Ahornsirup or any liquid sweetener you love, like agave syrup or coconut nectar.
- Erdbeerextrakt – This is optional. Add only for a boost of strawberry flavor.
- Mandel Extrakt – This is my favorite addition to make the proteins balls taste like strawberry cheesecake. You can also use vanilla extract.
- Mandelmilch or any dairy-free milk you like.
- Cashewbutter or any nut butter you like, including almond butter, peanut butter, or sunflower seed butter. Some nut butter varieties can have a strong flavor that covers the strawberry flavor.
Making Protein Ball Recipe
- First, pulse the freeze-dried strawberries in a food processor. You want a mix of powder and pieces of freeze-dried fruits. You can also place the strawberries in a sealed bag and roll a rolling pin on them to crush them.
- In a large mixing bowl, add almond flour, the previous strawberry mixture, and pea protein powder and stir to combine.
- Add in cashew butter, maple syrup almond extract, and natural strawberry extract if used.
- Stir and if too dry, start adding the almond milk. The dough should come together, be soft, moist but not wet or overly sticky.
- Meanwhile, prepare a bowl with some freeze-dried strawberry powder.
- Grease your hand a little with coconut oil before rolling the dough into balls and roll each in the powder to coat.

You can store the protein balls in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days. You can freeze them for up to 1 month in sealed zip-lock bags and thaw at room temperature the day before.
You can flavor the dough using a bit of natural strawberry extract and/or strawberry flavor pea protein powder.
You can’t use fresh strawberries without altering the recipe. Fresh strawberries are releasing liquid that make the dough very moist and wet. You will need some oat flour, or more protein powder to dry out the dough and make it easy to roll.
Roll the strawberry energy balls into hemp seeds or soy crisp, both are packed with proteins and add a lovely crunch.
This sounds yummy. I am looking after my granddaughter, she is 15 months old could I give her 1of these protein balls?
I can’t recommend on kids nutrition, but I don’t think protein powders are great for little kids.
Is This no bake .?
Ja!
These are SO good. Honestly so delicious and satisfying, you really get your bang for your buck in each bite. I made these with both sunflower and cashew butter. They were both great, but i will say the sunflower butter had a much stronger flavor than the cashew did. The cashew butter was more neutral so you could taste the strawberry more
Oh thank you!!!! Cashew butter is indeed very milk in flavor!
Hello. Just curious if the balls would hold up well without rolling in the strawberry crumbs at the end.
They absolutely will, the strawberry powder is just for color and taste!
