Notes
Test the mixture to see if it sticks together: Before rolling all your protein balls, test one by rolling it into a ball and if it sticks together, the mixture is ready.
If the mixture is too dry: Add water or extra honey, one tablespoon at a time until the mixture sticks together when rolled into a ball and they have more moisture.
Store protein balls in an airtight container, at room temperature or in the fridge, for 1 week.
Freeze protein balls by placing them in either an airtight container or zip-lock bag and freeze for up to 2 months.
Thaw frozen protein balls at room temperature for 30 minutes or longer until they've softened. Alternatively, defrost them in the fridge overnight.
