Matcha Protein Energy Balls

No-bake bites of oats, almond butter, vanilla protein, and matcha rolled into grab-and-go rounds with a gentle caffeine lift. Balanced at 200 calories per two-ball serving, they're a maintenance-day snack or pre-workout nibble rather than a dessert replacement.

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup rolled oats
• 3 tbsp almond butter
• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
• 1.5 tsp matcha powder
• 2 tbsp honey
• 2 tbsp milk
• A pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Stir all the ingredients into a stiff, sticky dough.
2. Add milk a teaspoon at a time if it won't hold together.
3. Roll into 8 balls and dust lightly with extra matcha.
4. Chill 30 minutes; two balls make a serving.
