Whey Better Protein Balls

Ingredients 

1/2 cup natural peanut, almond or cashew butter

3 tbsp honey

1 orange, zest only

1/2 tsp cinnamon

2/3 cup plain, vanilla or chocolate whey protein powder

3 tbsp chia seeds

Pinch of salt

Directions

Stir together nut butter, honey, orange zest, cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Add the protein powder and mix until fully incorporated. The mixture should be doughy and just slightly moist. If it is too dry, add water 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.

Roll the mixture into twelve 1-inch balls. Place chia seeds in a shallow dish and roll the protein powder balls in the seeds.

Store in an airtight container and refrigerate.

Makes 12 protein balls.
