Instructions

In a large bowl, stir together peanut butter, pure maple syrup, vanilla extract and water.
To the bowl, add the oats, protein powder, chia or hemp seeds and salt. Fold together until everything is evenly combined and a dough forms. It should hold together when pressed between your fingers. If it seems to dry or crumbly, add more water, starting with 1 tablespoon at a time. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Using a tablespoon, scoop out the dough and roll into about 20 balls. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

Nutrition Facts are for 1 bite if you divide the dough into 20 bites. Please keep in mind that they will vary depending on what brands you use (such as protein powder, nut butter, and chocolate chips).
