  • Chill the mixture before rolling it into balls: This will help the balls to hold their shape.
  • Use a variety of toppings: Such as chopped nuts, seeds, or dried fruit, to add flavor and texture.
  • Store the protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator: They will last for up to 2 weeks.
