If you’ve never made a batch of protein balls, you should know how SIMPLE and QUICK they are to make (and eat!). All you have to do is combine all of your ingredients and mix! Seriously! It’s too easy.
How To Shape Pumpkin Protein Balls
You don’t have to form this recipe into balls in order to enjoy them. You could press the mix into a baking dish and form them into little bars.
Anyways, if you want to know how I shaped the pumpkin protein balls, I won’t keep it a secret from you. Grab a standard cookie dough scoop and take an even portion of the mix, pressing it against the edge of the bowl as you take the mix out of the bowl. This will ensure you aren’t adding different amounts each time!
Using clean hands, use cupped palms to apply even pressure move both your hands in opposite circular motions. This will result in even protein balls!
Storage
You can store these in an airtight container or a baggie on your counter, if you will eat them in a couple days. If you believe it may take a few days for you to get through these, store them in your fridge.
