I would like a recipe for protein bars/balls that doesnt involve peanut butter as I really can't stand it lol. I've searched but obviously in the wrong places because they all seem to involve the foul stuff.

Anyone help? Thank you

    You could try substituting tahini (sesame seed paste) for the peanut butter, or sunflower seed butter, or any other kind of nut butter.

    Funny you mention it since I am in a similar situation. A friend of mine today told me that she uses apple and banana blended with almond milk as the wet base for her chocolate protein + oats. Hope this helped

    I'm thinking something similar to a no bake cookie. Oats, protein powder, some milk, and chocolate to hold it together =)

    1/2 cup almond butter or cashew butter
    1/4 cup local raw honey
    1/2-3/4 cup rolled oats
    1 tsp. cinnamon
    Just enough water to make into balls

    Mix all and freeze :]
