No Bake Cake Batter Balls (Printable)

Soft, chewy no-bake protein balls with cake batter flavor, oat flour, almond butter and sprinkles—15 minutes prep.

# What You'll Need:

01 - 1 cup oat flour (gluten-free if needed)

02 - 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder

03 - 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

04 - 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles (jimmies)

05 - 1/4 cup natural almond butter or cashew butter

06 - 1/4 cup pure maple syrup

07 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

08 - 2 tablespoons milk (dairy or non-dairy), plus more as needed

01 - Whisk together oat flour, vanilla protein powder, and fine sea salt in a large mixing bowl until well blended.

02 - Stir in rainbow sprinkles ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture.

03 - In a separate bowl, mix almond or cashew butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and milk until a smooth consistency is achieved.

04 - Fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick, even dough forms.

05 - If the mixture appears dry, incorporate an additional tablespoon of milk. If too sticky, add more oat flour gradually.

06 - Portion dough using a tablespoon or scoop and roll between palms to form balls, each approximately 1 tablespoon in size.

07 - Arrange formed balls on a parchment-lined tray or plate.

08 - Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set for optimal texture before serving.

01 -

You get all the joy of sneaking cake batter but with better-for-you ingredients (and no baking).
They're ridiculously quick to make, and honestly, rolling them is kind of relaxing after a busy week.

02 -

If you use regular (not natural) almond butter, the dough can get dry—so always check texture before rolling.
When I swapped in almond extract just once, it made them taste exactly like bakery birthday cake—now I always add a single drop.

03 -

Always check your sprinkles for hidden dairy if making vegan—they sneak it in where you least expect.
A single pinch of sea salt can make the cake flavor pop—give it a taste before you stop there.
