Prep Time 10 minutes mins
Cook Time 0 minutes mins
3/4 cup rolled oats 3 tbsp vanilla or chocolate protein powder 1/3 cup natural peanut butter 3 tbsp honey sub maple syrup 1/4 cup crushed gluten free pretzels
Whisk together peanut butter, maple syrup and protein powder until smooth
Add gluten free pretzels to a bag and crush them up into tiny pieces
Add the crushed gluten free pretzels and oats into the peanut butter mixture. Keep folding until well combined
Roll into 1 inch sized bites and store in a sealed container. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes to harden up and enjoy!
You can substitute the protein powder for oat flour
If you are using plain protein powder, I would recommend adding a splash of vanilla extract
If you are using unsalted pretzels, I would recommend adding a pinch of salt (you can also use regular pretzels but gluten free has a nice crunch)
You can substitute the peanut butter with the nut or seed butter of your choosingÂ
