Enjoy these delightful, nutrient-packed protein bites that taste like a creamy, indulgent cookie dough treat while powering you through your day. The natural creaminess of blended chickpeas combined with vanilla protein powder, almond butter, and a hint of oats creates a satisfying texture and flavor, accented with a few dark chocolate chips. Perfect for a quick breakfast, a midday snack, or a light dinner treat.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup canned chickpeas (drained, approx. 125g)
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (approx. 30g)
1 tbsp almond butter (16g)
2 tbsp rolled oats (20g)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (2.5g)
1 tbsp dark chocolate chips (15g)
PREPARATION
Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas thoroughly. Place them in a food processor and blend until a smooth, creamy consistency is achieved.
Add the vanilla protein powder, almond butter, rolled oats, and vanilla extract to the blended chickpeas. Process until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is uniform.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips by hand to ensure they remain intact within the mixture.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll into bite-sized balls. If the mixture is too sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes before rolling.
Place the formed protein bites on a plate lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
