Since enjoying all of the festive flavours over Christmas, cinnamon is quickly becoming one of my favourite flavours which is what inspired this week's protein ball recipe.
A great snack to make in advance & take out & about with you to help you stay on track with your diet. It's gluten free & vegan too.
Servings - Makes 10 balls
Macros per ball:
72kcal / 4.5g protein / 10g carbs / 2g fat / 1g fibre
Ingredients:
30g oats (regular or gluten free)
40g vanilla protein powder
50g raisins
2 tbsp honey or agave
1tbsp cashew butter
1tbsp cinnamon
Instructions:
1. Soak half of the raisins in boiling water for 15 mins (place them in a glass & cup & just cover them in hot water - don't let them have a swim!)
2. Once the raisins have soaked place them in a blender/food processor with oats, protein powder, honey, cashew butter & blend until mix sticks together (if mix looks a bit dry add 1-2tsp water).
3. Add remaining raisins & give one light blend to mix them in without chopping them up too much.
4. Roll into even sized balls.
5. Eat :-)
