Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup cream cheese, softened (Can substitute with plant-based cream cheese if dairy-free)
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain flavor recommended)
  • ½ cup protein powder (vanilla flavor recommended)
  • ½ cup fresh blueberries (gently fold into the mixture)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust according to sweetness preference)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • a pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, protein powder, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything thoroughly until a consistent mixture forms.
  2. Incorporate Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries to the mixture without mashing them, to retain their juicy bursts within every bite.
  3. Shape the Bites: Using clean hands or a scoop, scoop about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball shape. Place each ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat this until all the mixture is used up.
  4. Chill: Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and chill the protein bites for 30 to 60 minutes. This step firms them up and helps achieve the perfect texture.
  5. Enjoy: Once chilled and set, the Blueberry Cheesecake Protein Bites are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep fresh.

Notes

  • These bites can be customized by adding toppings such as crushed nuts or coconut flakes for extra texture and flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to tailor the sweetness to your preference and based on the natural sweetness of the blueberries.
  • Chilling the bites is critical to avoid a squishy texture and ensure they firm up properly.
  • If dairy-free, substitute cream cheese with a plant-based cream cheese or cashew cream for a nutty twist.
  • Pair these protein bites with smoothies, herbal tea, fresh fruit, yogurt, or nuts for delightful snack combos.
