Directions
In a large mixing bowl combine quick oats, oat flour, protein powder, ground flax, chia seeds and cinnamon. Fold in the almond butter and maple syrup until a thick dough forms. If it is too thick to work with, add the almond milk.
Use a tablespoon to scoop out dough and roll into balls, approximately 1-inch in diameter. Chill in the fridge for at least 20 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
