Protein Balls Recipe
The pb and oatmeal balls are VERY easy.
1 cup Peanut Butter (I use no-sugar-added Peter Pan)
1 cup rolled oatmeal -- not the instant stuff
1 cup protein powder (I use Matrix Chocolate, but you can use other flavors)
5 packets Splenda
Warm the peanut butter in microwave about 30-40 seconds -- it melts it and makes mixing in the other ingredients much easier. Add the oatmeal, protein powder, and Splenda and mix well. (If needed, you can add a little bit of water to make it easier to mix) Roll into walnut sized balls, refrigerate. Store in fridge in zip-lock baggies. This recipe makes 20-24 balls.
Protect them. They tend to disappear. My family loves to snack on them.
I make them pretty much the same way Jean does, but I use 1/2 cup SF syrup instead of Splenda--and I
usually throw in some peanuts...just because...I roll them into the size of ping pong balls and put 3 of them in snack size zip lock bags and have to HIDE them in the bottom of the fridge or my teenagers
will eat them all up
Protein Balls
1 cup of protein powder (chocolate or vanilla)
1 cup of non-fat dry milk
1 cup of rice crispy cereal
1 cup of peanut butter
Splenda to taste
Cocoa powder mixed with Splenda
Add the Protein Powder, Dry Milk, Cereal and Peanut Butter in a mixing
bowl. Mix thoroughly making sure that all the dry milk is in the mix and
not really visible. If you like it really sweet, add some more Splenda to
fit your taste. Form the mixture into small balls (about 1.5 inches in
diameter) Roll in the cocoa/Splenda mix. Refrigerate.
Each ball has about 10 grams of protein

2 scoops of Unjury chocolate
1/2 c low carb special K
3 tbsp of sugar free maple syrup
1/4 c chopped nuts I used pecans, walnuts, almonds

I mixed everything up in a bowl and then rolled them in oatmeal.
They were yummy!
Protein Balls
1 cup protein powder (I use whatever protein powder I have at the time)
1 cup uncooked oatmeal (not the quick oats, just regular oatmeal)
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar free maple syrup or honey (I use less the 1/2c of honey.
Mix together well and roll into balls - about the size of a ping pong ball. Store in a Tupperware or Ziploc bag in the refrigerator. They have about 10 grams of protein each.

1 cup non-fat dry milk
1 cup rice crispy cereal
1 cup peanut butter
Splenda to taste
cocoa powder mixed with Splenda
Add the protein powder, dry milk, cereal and peanut butter in a mixing

in diameter) Roll in the cocoa/Splenda mix. Refrigerate.
Each ball has about 10 grams of protein.
Peanut Butter Balls
1 c- sugar free peanut butter
1c- rice krispies
1c-protein powder (I was told choc. or vanilla, but my Cappuccino that I already had worked fine.)
Splenda to taste
roll into balls and then into cocoa/Splenda mixed (if desired) and refrigerate in baggies. They say they are 10 g protein per 1 1/2 in. ball!
Protein Poppers
1 C. protein powder
1 C. non-fat dry milk
1 C. peanut butter
Cocoa powder
2 tbsp water
1⁄2 C. ground flax seed
1⁄2 C. rolled oats
Splenda to taste
1 tsp. rum extract
Mix protein powder, milk powder, rum extract and peanut butter. When totally mixed, add flax and oats. Put water in bowl on side; make one inch balls, dipping fingers into water if too sticky.
In separate bowl, mix Splenda and cocoa. Roll each ball in cocoa mixture. Chill one hour before eating.
Approx.10 grams of protein per ball.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls
couple of ounces of cream cheese (fat free)
couple of large tablespoons of peanut butter
couple of large tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa
1/4 to 1/3 cup Splenda
Then I just mash and stir until all the dry has been incorporated into the wet. At this point I roll it into balls about as big around as an olive and chill (or eat right away, if you can't wait!). You shouldn't go wild with these, but a couple of them will curb the chocolate craving for me. Enjoy!
Peanut Butter Balls
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup Splenda
blend this together...
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg and 1 serving of protein powder
mix all this. Roll into 6 balls and place on a cookie sheet-spray your hands with Pam so the cookie dough won't stick to your hands. Dip your fork in Splenda and do a crisscross on top of the cookie. Bake at 350 for 8-12 minutes. Let cool. *If you eat them while they are still warm, they will crumble in your hands. I guess they just need time to set?
Protein Balls
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar free honey
1 cup unflavored protein powder
1/2 cup grape nut cereal
sprinkle of cinnamon
sprinkle of Splenda
Mix peanut butter, honey and protein powder together till well blended. Form into balls. In another bowl mix grape nuts, Splenda and cinnamon together. Wet peanut butter balls with water and roll into grape nut mixture. Place in frig and grab when you need a yummy snack!
Nutty Fudge Protein Bar (from Ann B/Ann in TX)
2 1/3 cups chocolate protein powder (I use Champion Whey Stack)
1 oz square unsweetened chocolate
1/2 cup butter
4 oz cream cheese
1 oz chopped pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoons peanut butter
1/4 cup Splenda
Melt butter, cream cheese, peanut butter and chocolate in bowl in microwave and mix together very well.
Add Splenda and vanilla, mix well again.
Add pecans and protein powder and mix.
Place in a baking pan, press down and refrigerate.
When cooled and hardened, cut into 20 square bars. This does not get baked but the mixture will be warm from heating the first five ingredients in the microwave.
Makes 20 bars
Nutrition counts:
(Based on using real butter and cream cheese, could be lower if diet butter, low fat cream cheese, or if applesauce is substituted for the butter.) I am sure these would be good using sugar free chocolate but I prefer not to have the extra calories or manitol.
