What ingredients do I need to make these protein bites?

• Old fashioned 100% whole grain oats-I don’t recommend using quick oats. They don’t have the same texture like the old fashioned oats do.
• Protein powder- I like to use Devotion Protein Powder– The Angel Food Cake Devotion Protein Powder
• Cinnamon
• Low point peanut butter 
• Honey
• Almond or vanilla extract
• Lily’s (no sugar added) Dark Chocolate Chip )
• Unsweetened coconut (optional, points are the same with or without it)
• Unsweetened almond milk

What other ingredients can I add to these protein bites?

• Lily’s No Sugar Added Chocolate Chips or Lakanto sugar free chocolate chips
• Ground Flaxseed
• Chia Seeds
• Rainbow Sprinkles
• Mini M&M’s

What low point peanut or nut butter do you recommend?

Well, my two favorite whipped peanut butters Jif Whips and Peter Pan 1/3 less fat whipped have both been discontinued-but I have since found a few other brands that I LOVE!

This Better’n Peanut Butter Peanut Butter is only 100 calories, 3 smartpoints for 2 Tablespoons, 4 grams of protein, and is Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Palm Oil Free, and Kosher.

You can find it online on Amazon HERE.

 

What kind of Protein Powder do you recommend?

I use like to use Angel Food Cake Devotion Nutrition Protein Powder. It’s 1 WW point per scoop, 0 sugar, and low carb.
