Why You’ll Love Vegan Protein Balls
Vegan Protein Balls are easy, healthy snacks made with nut butter and loaded with high-protein vegan ingredients, including ground flax seeds, chia seeds, and protein powder. They are free from honey or whey protein powder – ingredients are not vegan and often found in regular protein ball recipes.
They are the best vegan energy balls post-workout to refuel your body with plant-based proteins and fix a sweet craving.
Ingrédients et substitutions
All you need to make no-bake protein energy balls are a few ingredients:
- Beurre d'arachide – You can use almond butter or sunflower seed butter to decrease the saturated fat and increase the protein naturally.
- de sirop d'érable or any liquid sweetener you have on hand like rice syrup, coconut nectar, or agave syrup.
- Poudre de protéine de vanille végétalienne – There are many options to choose from. Pea protein, brown rice protein powder, or peanut protein powder. All these options are great, but I recommend pea protein powder to ensure the best texture and flavor in this no-bake protein balls recipe.
- Farine de graines de lin – this brings a lot of binding.
- Graines de Chia – Chia seeds are excellent for your body and bring some binding.
- Pépites de chocolat noir – or vegan chocolate chips.
- Pincée de sel - optionnel
- Flocons d'avoine à l'ancienne – Choisissez une marque d'avoine certifiée sans gluten.
How To Make Vegan Protein Balls
Il faut moins de minutes 30 to make these energy balls with simple ingredients. They are super easy to make on a Sunday and store in the fridge to meal prep a week of healthy protein snacks.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the peanut butter or nut butter you love with maple syrup (photo 1). Stir both ingredients together until smooth then add the remaining ingredients.
- Stir the pea protein powder, flaxseed meal, chia seeds, oats, and chocolate chips (photo 2) until well incorporated in the batter (photo 3).
- Depending on the vegan protein powder you use, you may need to stir in one or two tablespoons of plant-based milk to bring the ingredients together. On the other hand, if the dough is too wet, you can stir in a bit more protein powder or extra flaxseed meal to dry out the energy balls batter.
- Line a plate or baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out about 1 1/2 tablespoons of protein ball batter and roll into a ball between your hands (photo 4). If sticky, wet your hand a little, or grease hands with coconut oil before rolling.
Release each protein balls on the prepared plate. Repeat the steps above until all the vegan protein ball recipe is formed into balls.
If you like, drizzle some melted dark chocolate on top of the energy balls.

- Sugar-Free Protein Balls – Use sugar-free dark chocolate chips and sugar-free monk fruit syrup instead of maple syrup.

I make a double batch of these on repeat! Thanks so much for the recipe x
That’s so nice to hear! thank you for making my recipes.
Love these. I used chocolate chips in the mix rather than melting them.
Don’t you mean 1/4c if chocolate chips? Not 1/4T?
Otherwise all good. Quick to make and yummy.
Thank you so much for spotting this mistake! Yes, I am using 1/4 cup 🙂
These were amazing, thank you for the recipe!
I am so happy you love them! Thank you for your feedback
I made these protein balls today. They are delicious. I have a question Carine: in the recipe says 1/4 tablespoon chocolate chips. that would be 4 or 5 minichips…From what I see in the pictures it’s more like 1/4 cup. I omitted them in the recipe. I just drizzled some melted vegan semi sweet chocolate on them. I thought it would be a good idea to let you know about the quantity of chocolate chips.
Thank you for another great recipe.
Hello, thank you for this recipe! I have made this twice now and the results have been great each time. However everything else I have read about brown rice syrup indicates that it has a very high glycemic index so I substituted maple syrup instead.
