Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of old-fashioned rolled oats, 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder, and 2 tablespoons of chia seeds. Stir well to ensure all the dry ingredients are mixed evenly.
- Next, mix in ½ cup of creamy natural peanut butter, ¼ cup of maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Use a sturdy spatula to combine everything until a thick dough begins to form.
- Gently fold in ½ cup of raspberry jam, aiming for pockets of sweetness throughout the mixture rather than fully incorporating it.
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball between your palms. Repeat until all the dough is shaped into balls.
- Place the rolled Jelly Protein Balls on a parchment-lined tray, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up properly.
- Once chilled, you can either enjoy them right away or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes
Chill time is essential for the texture and flavor of the Jelly Protein Balls. Customize jams and nut butters as desired.
