Delicious and nutritious Strawberry Cheesecake Protein Balls make a perfect healthy snack. Combining the flavors of creamy cheesecake and fresh strawberries, these protein-packed bites are easy to prepare and ideal for a quick energy boost or post-workout fuel.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • ¼ cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed

Wet Ingredients

  • ¼ cup cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1–2 tbsp milk (as needed)

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, stir together the rolled oats, almond flour, and vanilla protein powder until well blended.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Mix in the softened cream cheese, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is thoroughly combined.
  3. Adjust Consistency: If the mixture feels too dry or crumbly, gradually add milk one tablespoon at a time until the mixture becomes smooth and holds together.
  4. Form Balls: Using clean hands, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls, pressing firmly to ensure they hold their shape well.
  5. Chill: Place the protein balls on a parchment-lined plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond flour with oat flour for a different texture.
  • Freeze-dried strawberries can be replaced with other freeze-dried berries like raspberries or blueberries.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup according to taste.
  • Store protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • For a vegan version, use plant-based protein powder and dairy-free cream cheese alternatives.
