Ingredients

  • 2 cups Kodiak Cakes pancake mix (I used buttermilk flavor), or any protein type pancake mix
  • 1/3 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest
  • 1/2 tablespoon poppy seeds or chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons water more or less as needed

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Mix until it reaches a cookie-dough-like consistency.
  • Portion into small balls (I used a 2 teaspoon sized cookie scoop to make the balls) and chill in the fridge.

Notes

Store protein balls in a ziplock bag in the fridge. Leftovers will last up to 1 week.
If you like a lemon + almond flavor you can add a 1/8 tsp of almond extract to the dough... optional of course!!
