Description

A guilt-free, high-protein treat that combines the delightful flavors of strawberry cheesecake in a simple and satisfying snack.


Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • ¼ cup cream cheese (softened)
  • ¼ cup freeze-dried strawberries (crushed)
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tbsp milk (as needed)


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix rolled oats, almond flour, and vanilla protein powder until evenly combined.
  2. Add softened cream cheese, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until fully combined.
  3. If the dough feels too dry, gradually add 1-2 tablespoons of milk until you achieve a moldable consistency.
  4. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a plate lined with parchment paper.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the protein balls to set.
  6. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

Notes

Use softened cream cheese for easy mixing. Consider using flavored protein powders or other freeze-dried fruits for variation.
