FAQs
Can I use quick oats instead of rolled oats?
Yes, you can, but rolled oats give a better chewy texture. Quick oats will make them softer.

Add a little more nut butter or milk until the texture becomes easy to roll.
How many protein balls does this recipe make?
This recipe makes about 12-15 balls, depending on size.
