WW Recipe of the Day: No-Bake Kodiak Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Protein Balls
Always on the lookout for quick and easy snacks and simple breakfast foods, I stumbled on this no-bake protein balls mix from Kodiak at my local Costco. I’m sure you can find a smaller box at your local grocery store, but this giant CostCo version contains 3, 12.7-ounces bags, which is enough to make 42 protein bites.
And these aren’t your typical bites which you can easily pop into your mouth. Each one is made from 1/4-cup of mixture, so they’re more like two- or three-bite snacks packed with 10 grams of protein!
Made with pre-measured 100% whole grains and non-GMO ingredients, all you have to do is add your favorite nut butter, liquid sweetener and water. Then simply roll, chill, and enjoy,
Other popular flavors include Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Protein Balls and Birthday Cake Protein Balls.

How to Make Kodiak Oatmeal Chocolate Chip No-Bake Protein Bites
Step 1: Gather and prepare all ingredients.
Step 2: In a medium mixing bowl, stir together all ingredients with a wooden spoon (affiliate link) until thoroughly combined.
Step 3: Using 1/4-cup mixture per bite, roll mixture between palms into a ball and place on rimmed baking dish.
(If mixture needs additional moisture, add up to 2 tablespoons water before rolling balls.) Continue until mixture is used up and you have 14 balls.
Step 4: Refrigerate rolled bites for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Step 5: Store any leftover protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Recipe Notes
I used natural creamy peanut butter, with no added sugar, but feel free to substitute your favorite nut butter. I’m going to try almond butter next.
While mixing the batter, I found it to be a little too crumbly and ended up adding about one additional tablespoon of water before rolling into balls.
While the fresh mixed batter is delicious, be sure to not skip the chilling which helps a lot with the consistency, resulting a firmer texture.
Ways to Use Leftovers
Add a protein ball to a small bowl (affiliate link) and top with non-fat Greek yogurt and fresh berries for a quick and easy breakfast parfait or after school snack.
