Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Biscoff Spread
- 1/4 cup Cream Cheese
- 2 tbsp Honey or Maple Syrup
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Vanilla Protein Powder
- 1 cup Oats
- 1/4 cup Almond Flour
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
Instructions
- Gather Your Ingredients: Assemble all your ingredients—Biscoff spread, cream cheese, vanilla protein powder, oats, honey or maple syrup, almond flour, and cinnamon—to ensure a smooth cooking process.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, blend Biscoff spread and cream cheese together using a hand mixer or spatula until smooth and creamy to evenly distribute the cheesecake flavor.
- Add the Dry Ingredients: Gradually incorporate the vanilla protein powder, oats, almond flour, and cinnamon into the wet mixture, stirring well. Add a tablespoon of water or milk if the dough is too dry; it should be thick but pliable.
- Sweeten to Taste: Add honey or maple syrup and mix thoroughly. Adjust sweetness by adding more syrup or a dash of vanilla extract according to your preference.
- Roll into Balls: Scoop a tablespoon-sized portion of dough and roll between your palms to form balls. Repeat until all dough is used, yielding about 12-15 balls depending on size.
- Chill and Store: Place protein balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze up to a month.
Notes
- Substitute oats with shredded coconut or extra almond flour for a lower-carb option.
- Add chopped nuts like almonds or walnuts for extra crunch and protein.
- Mix in crushed Biscoff biscuits (about 2) for more flavor and texture; this will increase calorie, fat, and carbs slightly.
- Try adding a tablespoon of cocoa powder for a chocolate twist or sprinkle sea salt for a sweet-salty flavor.
- To make vegan, use dairy-free cream cheese, plant-based protein powder, and replace honey with maple syrup or agave.
