The Power of Protein + Fiber

Protein helps support muscles and daily wellness, while fiber plays an important role in digestive health and overall balance. Many people fall short on fiber, which makes it a nutrient worth being intentional about. The new Premier Protein® Whey Protein Plus° Fiber Powder brings both together, making it easier to boost two key nutrients in your routine at the same time. It's the perfect ingredient for protein balls!

Recipe Tips

Texture: For a smoother, truffle-like texture instead of the classic chewy bite, replace the rolled oats with oat or nut flour in either recipe.

Mix-Ins or Coating: Finely chopped nuts, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, or pepitas add crunch, fiber, and healthy fats.

Mixing Method: The Pumpkin Spice version mixes easily by hand thanks to the pumpkin puree. The Spicy Chocolate version is thicker, so a food processor makes blending much easier.

Peanut Butter Prep: Lightly warm the peanut butter before mixing it in. This helps it combine more smoothly with the dry ingredients and prevents clumps.

Spicy Chocolate Protein Fiber Balls

Prep Time: 10 minutes, Chill Time: 20 minutes, Total Time: 30 minutes
Makes: 12 balls per batch
Serving Size: 1 ball

Ingredients

  • 4 scoops Premier Protein® Chocolate Whey Protein Plus° Fiber Powder
  • 1 cup rolled oats (dry)
  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (creamy, unsweetened)
  • 2 tablespoons hot honey substitute
  • 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
  • dash of salt (adjust to taste)
  • Optional: Add water, one tablespoon at a time if the mixture is too dry

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix protein powder, oats, cocoa powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mix with a sturdy spoon, or pulse together in a food processor for easier blending.
  2. Place the peanut butter in a microwave-safe dish and warm it for 15 to 20 seconds until softened. Warming helps it combine more smoothly with the dry ingredients. Add the warmed peanut butter and hot honey to the bowl and mix until well combined.
  3. Check consistency. The mixture should be slightly sticky but hold together when pressed. If too dry, add water; if too wet, sprinkle in more oats or protein powder.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes to firm the mixture before rolling. Chilling makes the dough less sticky and easier to roll.
  5. Use a small cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion and use your hands to roll into 12 balls.
  6. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can also be frozen and thawed a few minutes before eating.
