Healthy and fulfilling protein bites packed with the zesty flavor of lemon and the sweetness of blueberries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Combine the Base Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, rolled oats, honey (or maple syrup), lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until everything is well blended and looks creamy.
  2. Fold in the Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, taking care not to crush them. You want to keep those beautiful little berries whole for that burst of flavor in each bite!
  3. Form Bite-Sized Balls: Using your hands, scoop out the mixture and form it into small bite-sized balls. Don’t worry about making them perfect – these little treats are meant to be enjoyed, not stressed over.
  4. Chill and Set: Once formed, place the protein bites on a plate and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes. This cooling time helps them firm up and makes them easier to handle.
  5. Enjoy as a Protein-Packed Snack: After chilling, grab a bite or two (or three) for a nutritious snack that not only satiates but also boosts your energy. Enjoy!

Notes

Store any leftover protein bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Freeze for longer storage; simply pop them in the freezer and enjoy them within two months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before consuming.
