High Protein Healthy Recess’s Cup

This is my most requested recipe of August. It's no surprise when 2 of the 4 ingredients are peanut butter and chocolate. That is never wrong! These are also Gluten Free, Dairy Free (depending on the Chocolate Chips you use), and Nut Free (use Sunflower Butter if this is a requirement)! This is very allergy friendly so it's been a hit with 100% that have tried it! The original recipe is HERE.

.

But I re-vamped this to include more protein and it was just as much a hit!! TRY THIS OUT!

New ingredient list (directions are the same):

1 cup quick oats (don’t use old fashioned)

2 scoops Life Protein (adds 20g protein) can be chocolate or vanilla, but I’ve always used vanilla

2 TBSP Pumpkin Seeds (any seeds are fine)

1 cup Nut Butter of choice (I used ½ almond butter, ½ peanut butter because that’s what I had on hand)

¼ cup honey

2 TBSP pure maple syrup (NO LITE syrup here, if you don't have PURE maple syrup, use extra honey or agave instead)

½ cup Chocolate chips of choice (choose DF if that's your goal)

Enjoy and let me know if you make these! If you have any questions, post them below.

You can make these “bars” or “balls”. Now that school is back in session I am rolling balls more so I can take them to the bus stop and they can eat on the way to sport a little quicker.
