## Star Ingredients
These bites combine a powerful mix of flavor and nutrition. Here’s what you’ll typically find inside:
* **Rolled oats**: A hearty, fiber-rich base.
* **Protein powder**: Use your favorite vanilla or unflavored variety to give them a nutritional boost.
* **Nut butter**: Almond or cashew butter works beautifully to bind everything together and add creaminess.
* **Dried blueberries**: A naturally sweet, tangy burst of flavor in every bite.
* **Lemon zest + juice**: Fresh lemon brightens the flavor and adds a refreshing zing.
* **Honey or maple syrup**: A touch of natural sweetness to round out the tartness.
Optional add-ins include chia seeds, shredded coconut, or a few white chocolate chips for an indulgent twist.
## How to Make Them
One bowl, ten minutes, and zero stress—that’s how easy these bites are:
1. **Mix dry ingredients**: Combine oats, protein powder, and any add-ins.
2. **Stir in the wet**: Add nut butter, lemon zest/juice, and sweetener. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
3. **Fold in blueberries**: Gently stir in the dried fruit.
4. **Roll into balls**: Use your hands or a small scoop to form bite-sized rounds.
5. **Chill**: Let them firm up in the fridge for about 30 minutes, then enjoy!
They store well in the fridge for up to a week—or longer in the freezer—making them a great option for meal prepping healthy snacks.
## When to Enjoy Them
* **Pre/post workout**: Quick fuel for your muscles.
* **Afternoon slump**: A clean-energy alternative to sugary snacks.
* **Healthy dessert**: Sweet enough to satisfy cravings, smart enough to stick to your goals.
* **On-the-go breakfast**: Grab two or three and go.
