Homemade Protein Bars/ Balls

Image
Hi everyone, We have been making dates-seed balls/ laddus for years now and have it as a quick mid-morning snack. We have tried TWT protein bars and Monkey bars as a post-workout snack in the past; they are really good. However, we wanted to try our hands at making our own protein bars at home. Since we started consuming TWT protein powder, we thought to use it to make the balls/ laddus. We are pleased with the outcome. It tastes good and is quite filling. Even our parents liked it 😉.  Without further ado, let's have a look at the recipe! Makes: 10 balls Ingredients used:  Oats- 1/2 cup The Whole Truth Light Cocoa protein powder- 3 scoops (You can use any other brand as well) Peanut butter - 4 tbsp Flax seeds - 2 tbsp Soft dates (Kimiya dates)- 14 pcs Method: 1. Dry roast oats in a pan for 2-3 minutes or till it is light golden. Keep it aside and let it cool. 2. Remove the seeds from dates and tear each date piece into half. (Makes it easier to blend well) 3. Dry roast flax seeds
