Notes
No-bake Hemp Protein Balls are an excellent nutrient dense go-to snack. This recipe is flexible to meet your dietary needs and desires. For nut free option, substitute the peanut butter with another seed butter like sunflower or tahini.
This recipe calls for whole hemp seeds with or without sea salt. You can use Hemp Hearts for a softer chewier texture.
As an option, you can add 1/2 cup chopped pecans, walnuts or almonds. Or add dried cranberries or cherries. Pumpkins seeds will compliment this blend too.
If you decide to add a few more ingredients, just increase the peanut butter and honey slightly to help bind the balls if the blend feels dry. You can't go wrong.
Want to boost protein? Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup hemp protein powder to the mix for complete plant based protein.
