- In a large bowl, mix together the rolled oats, oat flour, Good Protein all-in-one drink mix and salt. Add the remaining ingredients and mix to form a paste.
- Line a small baking tray or plate with parchment paper. Shape the dough into 1 tablespoon (15 ml) balls using your hands and place them on the baking sheet.
Toppings
- Place the chocolate chips in a small bowl and melt them in 30-second intervals in the microwave.
- Dip the top of each energy bite into the white chocolate mixture, then place it on the baking sheet. Repeat for all bites. Garnish with freeze-dried strawberry powder, if desired. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Note
