Ingredients

  • 1 c. old-fashioned or rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 c. raw cashews
  • 1/4 c. almond butter
  • 2 Tbsp. maple syrup
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 2 scoops chocolate protein powder
  • 1/2 c. milk (I used almond milk)
  • 1-2 Tbsp. beet root powder
  • Plant-based red food coloring
  • 1/2 c. white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • In a food processor, pulse the oats and cashews until only tiny pieces remain. Then, add the almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and protein powder. In a small bowl, stir the milk and beet root powder. Next, add to the food processor and blend until a mostly smooth dough is formed. If desired, add a few drops of red food coloring and blend. Scoop and roll into balls.
