Use a combination of raisins, currants, golden raisins, prunes, dried cherries, or any dried fruit you prefer.

For even better results, soak dried fruit in wine for at least 3 weeks or boil the fruit in the wine.

Additional wine or rum can be brushed onto the cake as needed to keep it moist.

Satisfy your sweet tooth with chocolate protein balls that'll please even the pickiest of eaters. Loaded with healthy ingredients and tons of irresistible flavor, this protein ball recipe is perfect for on-the-go snackers looking for a delicious and nutritious treat.

Chocolate Protein Balls Ingredients

Here's what you'll need to make this healthy chocolate protein ball recipe:

Rolled Oats
Chewy rolled oats have tons of health benefits, including supporting heart and gut health. Plus, they're full of fiber that will keep hunger at bay for longer.

Peanut Butter
Protein-packed peanut butter helps bind the balls together. It creates a creamy texture and lends a nutty flavor. Almond or cashew butter would also work.

Honey
Honey adds sweetness without tons of added sugar. If you don't have honey on hand, try maple or date syrup.

Chocolate
This recipe calls for chopped dark chocolate, but you could use milk or semi-sweet chocolate if you prefer.

Flax Seeds and Chia Seeds
Flax seeds and chia seeds are packed with fiber and protein, making them the perfect additions to this healthy snack.

Protein Powder
Chocolate-flavored protein powder adds extra flavor and, obviously, takes the nutrient count up a notch.

Optional additions: Shredded coconut, dried fruit (such as cranberries or raisins), chopped nuts (such as almonds or pecans), hemp seeds, spices (such as cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice)

How to Make Protein Balls

Though these protein balls pack a powerfully flavorful and nutritious punch, they're shockingly simple to make. You'll find the full, step-by-step recipe below - but here's a brief overview of what you can expect:

Stir all the ingredients together until well-combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Scoop and roll the chilled mixture into evenly sized balls.

How to Store Protein Balls

Store the protein balls in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve. They should last in a tightly sealed container for up to a week.

Can You Freeze Protein Balls?

Yes, these protein balls are freezer-friendly. Start by arranging the balls in a single layer on a baking sheet and popping them in the freezer until they're frozen solid. Transfer the frozen balls to a zip-top freezer bag or other freezer-safe container. Freeze for up to three months. Thaw in the fridge.

Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise

"Quadrupled it right away because I knew they'd be good, but had no idea they would be this good," raves Lacey. "Almost like a no bake cookie taste without the guilt. I also added coconut to a batch and wow."

"I use almond butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips," says Ruby. "I only put in a couple tablespoons of honey. One thing that helped a ton was wetting my hands when forming the balls."

"So much flavor," according to madzymay. "I made the recipe like it is but added 1/4 cup of shredded coconut. Definitely will be keeping this recipe close by!"

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with aluminum foil, letting foil hang down over the sides of the pan; spray pan with cooking spray.

2. Stir oats, wheat germ, flax seed, protein powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Mash bananas in a separate large bowl and stir 1/4 cup Jif® peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract into bananas, mixing well. Stir dry ingredients into banana mixture and spread into the prepared baking dish.

3. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Spread 1/4 cup natural peanut butter over top.

4. Continue baking until lightly browned on the edges and set, 10 more minutes. Let cool in the pan and lift bars onto a work surface using aluminum foil as handles. Cut into bars, wrap in plastic wrap, and store in refrigerator.

Cook's Note

You can use any type of protein powder. I use hemp because it is high-fiber. If you use a very sweet powder, I'd suggest lowering the amount of honey. I typically use a brand-name peanut butter (such as Jiff) inside the bars and an all-natural peanut butter to spread on top. After they are cooled, I cut them into individual servings and cover them in plastic wrap for a grab-and-go breakfast.
