These easy no-bake birthday cake protein balls are a delicious and healthy snack option, bursting with cake batter flavor and colorful sprinkles. Perfect for kids and adults alike, they’re quick to make with simple ingredients and require no baking.

  • Total Time: 16 minutes
  • Yield: 7 servings (approximately 21 protein balls)

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 scoops vanilla Orgain protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • ½ cup runny almond butter
  • ¼ cup rainbow sprinkles

Optional Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon almond milk
  • ¼ cup honey

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add the rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, almond extract, runny almond butter, and rainbow sprinkles into a large bowl or food processor. If desired, also add almond milk and honey as optional ingredients.
  2. Mix Thoroughly: Use a rubber spatula to mix all ingredients until incorporated. If using a food processor, pulse until the mixture is well blended and sticky.
  3. Chill the Mixture: Place the combined mixture in the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm up and make it easier to form into balls.
  4. Form Protein Balls: Using a small cookie scoop, portion out approximately 21 protein bites and shape them into balls.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond butter with peanut butter or any other nut butter of choice.
  • For vegan and paleo options, use maple syrup instead of honey.
  • If the mixture is too dry, add a splash more almond milk to help combine.
  • Store protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
