Servings: 36-38 balls Prep: 5 MIN Cook time: 0 MIN

Ingredients

• 3 cups gluten-free oats (or oat flour)

• 1 cup vanilla protein powder

• 2 Tbsp ground cinnamon

• ½ tsp pink Himalayan sea salt

• 1 cup pure maple syrup

• 1 ½ cup nut butter

• ½ cup coconut oil (half melted)

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• ¼ - ½ cup white chocolate chips

• 1/4-1/2 cup freeze dried strawberries

Instructions

1. In a food processor, blend oats until flour consistency and then add the rest of the ingredients to process minus the chocolate chips. Fold in the white chocolate chips and use a 1 tbsp measuring spoon or cookie scooper to turn into balls!

Notes

1. Although it's not necessary, melting the coconut oil can improve the dough's texture and the distribution of the white chocolate chips throughout the balls, creating a delightful cheesecake flavor.
