Ingredients for Protein Balls:
• 115 g dates
• 95 g milk (or plant-based alternative/water)
• 65 g neutral ORGAINIC protein powder
• 25 g cocoa powder
• 75 g (soft) oats
• 150 g ground hazelnuts
• 1 tbsp nut butter (e.g. peanut or hazelnut)
• Approx. 50 g dark chocolate
• Approx. 50 g chopped hazelnuts
How to Make the Protein Balls:
- Prepare the dates: Start by blending the soft dates with the milk (or water) in a blender until smooth. If the dates are too firm, soaking them in water for a few minutes helps.
-
Make the dough: Mix the date paste with the remaining ingredients, including protein powder, cocoa, oats, hazelnuts, and nut butter. The dough will be quite sticky, but that makes it extra moist. If you prefer a firmer texture, just add more oats or nuts.
Bar Version:
Line a loaf pan with baking paper and press the dough evenly into the pan. Place the pan in the freezer for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, melt about 50 g of dark chocolate and spread it over the dough. Cut into strips while the chocolate is still slightly soft.
Ball Version:
With damp hands, form even balls from the dough. You can roll them in chopped hazelnuts or coat them with melted dark chocolate—your choice! For an even more intense combo, roll them in nuts first and then coat with chocolate.
