Chocolate Raspberry Protein Balls

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup rolled oats
    1 cup raw cashews
    2 servings vanilla plant-based protein powder (about 35 grams; I used Vega)
    8 dates, pitted
    1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 ripe banana
    1/2 cup freeze-dried raspberries

Directions

  1. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the oats, cashews, protein powder, dates, cocoa powder, and salt in a food processor, and blend until everything is a smooth, floury consistency.
  3. Add the banana, and blend until a thick, slightly sticky dough forms.
  4. Roll out 25 balls, and place them on the parchment paper.
  5. Pulse the freeze-dried raspberries in a Nutribullet or food processor.
  6. Roll each ball in the raspberry powder, and return to the cookie sheet.
  7. Store in the fridge in a sealed container for up to a week.
