What You Need:

ingredients for the cake batter protein bites in a white bowl. There is creamy cashew butter, maple syrup, colorful sprinkles, oat flour and protein powder

Let’s Make Protein Bites:

  1. Add all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl and use rubber spatula to fully combine (might seem dry at first, but give it a second)
  2. Use small cookie dough scoop to scoop out 9 balls onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Use hands to roll into smooth balls
  3. Let sit in the fridge for 15-30 minutes to firm up
  4. Store in an airtight container in the fridge

Recipe Notes:

  • Make oat flour by grinding gluten free oats in the food processor or you can buy already made oat flour in most grocery stores now
  • The mixture will seem too dry at first, but keep mixing, it will come together. And you can always add a little more cashew butter if you really need it
  • I use these sprinkles but feel free to use whatever style sprinkles you want (the kids will love helping with the recipe)
  • You can use a different creamy nut butter, but it will change the taste. Cashew butter is mild and somewhat neutral in flavor, so it works well in this recipe
