Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Stand Mixer (optional)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup quick oats
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tablespoon cacao powder
  • 3 tablespoons peanut butter or almond butter
  • 3 tablespoons agave nectar
  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3-4 tablespoons water

Instructions
 

  • To a large mixing bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer, add the oats, almond flour, protein powder, and cacao powder. Mix well to combine the dry ingredients.
  • Add the peanut butter, agave nectar, flaxseeds, vanilla extract, and 3 tablespoons of water. Mix until a rough dough forms, and the mixture begins to stick together.
  • Mix for a few minutes until the batter becomes a thick paste, you should be able to roll the mix into a ball with your hands. If it is too dry and cannot be rolled by hand, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of water and stir again. If it is still too dry, add an additional tablespoon of water.
  • Roll about 2 tablespoons of dough into a ball in your hands. Repeat until the remaining lemon mix is gone. Freeze bites, and enjoy for a quick treat any time!
