Συστατικά και υποκατάστατα
If you are after an easy protein ball recipe with just five ingredients, this is the recipe you need. It focused on the basic wholesome ingredients you need in energy balls without adding the ones that increase calories.
- Γρήγορη βρώμη – You can also use rolled oats, but I found the texture of the protein balls very crumbly and dry using old-fashioned oats. Feel free to use gluten-free certified oats if you need them.
- Φυστικοβούτυρο, cashew butter, or almond butter – I prefer using a small amount of natural peanut butter rather than powdered peanut butter, making the protein balls too watery. Plus, peanut butter adds proteins as well. You can also make nut-free protein balls using sunflower seed butter, as seen in my nut-free energy ball recipe.
- Πρωτεΐνη βανίλιας σε σκόνη – You can use any vegan protein powder you love, Chocolate-flavored plant-based protein powder is a great idea to make chocolate protein balls. I do love peanut butter protein powder to make peanut butter protein balls.
- Maple Syrup – You can also use other liquid sweeteners, like coconut nectar or agave syrup.
- Γάλα αμυγδάλου χωρίς ζάχαρη – or any plant-based milk you enjoy. This ingredient is used to stick all the ingredients together, it hydrates the protein powder and sticks with the peanut butter, and oats.
How To Make Low Calories Protein Balls
These balls are really easy to make. Here’s how.
- In a large bowl, stir the peanut butter, unsweetened almond milk, and maple syrup until well combined. Peanut butter splits into small pieces when it’s in contact with dairy-free milk, and that’s fine. You can add up to one teaspoon of vanilla extract in this step. I don’t add any because my protein powder has a strong vanilla taste, and I found the added extract too overpowering.
- Now stir in protein powder and quick oats. If the batter is too dry and difficult to bring together, add a bit more almond milk.
- Grab a tablespoon of batter roll into a ball and place in an airtight container.
- Repeat until you have 12 protein balls, close the container, and keep a week in the fridge.
Προαιρετικά πρόσθετα
The best to keep the protein balls low in kilocalories is to limit add-on or use only 1/4 cup focusing on low-fat ingredients. Avoid nuts or chocolate chips and try these instead:
- Freeze-dried fruits like strawberries or raspberries
- Αποξηραμένα βερίκοκα
- Dried raisins or cranberries
Συμβουλές της Carine
- Cut down the nut butter – Most protein balls recipes contain 1/2 cup of peanut butter. Nut butters are healthy, but high in fat and calories. Reduce the amount or use powdered peanut butter as a swap.
- Avoid Add-Ons – To make low-calorie energy balls, the best is to create a plain batch without added chocolate chips or nuts. Both raise the calories very quickly.
- Swap chocolate for dried fruits – Chocolate chips are higher in calories per serving than dried apricots, raisins, or cranberries.
- Use sugar-free syrup – This doesn’t always turn out to be the best because some syrups are high in fiber and make the protein balls crumbly. But it does cut the calories and sugar.
- Stay away from added nuts and seeds – Chia seeds, flax seeds, or nuts contain healthy fats and fiber. However, if your goal is to decrease the energy bites calories, it’s not a good choice.

- Roll into 12 balls from about one tablespoon of batter each and place them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Do you make anything low carb? I’m currently taking the Zepbound shots and wouldn’t mind a treat something like this that I could pull one or two out of freezer and have.
I don’t bake many low carb recipes, but my recipes using almond flour are lower in carbs
Sounds good – question: Can I use regular oat meal instead of quick oats? Would I need to adjust something to make it work? The recipe sounds great! Anxious to try it.
You can, but rolled oats/regular oatmeal is not as thin and makes the balls difficult to roll and very dry. You can simply pulse few times rolled oats in a food processor to create a thinner texture and create your own quick oats.
I used chocolate protein powder. This recipe is AMAZING!
