I added some cacao nibs, a tablespoon of maple syrup, and a pinch of sea salt, and they were perfect!\" - Nicola<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 id=\"recipe-ingredients\"    class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recipe Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chickpeas<\/strong> give these homemade protein balls a creamy base that tastes and feels very much like cookie dough. I love to keep cooked chickpeas in the freezer because they\u2019re so handy for recipes like an <a href=\"https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/the-easiest-smashed-chickpea-salad\/\">easy smashed chickpea salad<\/a>. Canned chickpeas will do in a pinch. Just be sure to drain and rinse them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Oats <\/strong>add texture, giving the bliss balls a crunchy and chewy bite. I prefer rolled oats, but you can use quick-cooking oats too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Nut Butter:<\/strong> I prefer the classic creamy peanut butter. But whether you use peanut, almond, or cashew butter, they all add the perfect gooeyness and help everything glue together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sweetener:<\/strong> I love using dates. Their rich, caramel-like sweetness tastes <em>so good. S<\/em>oak them in warm water first to soften them up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Coconut<\/strong>: I love to add desiccated coconut into chickpea energy balls. You can even leave it out if you don\u2019t care for the taste of coconut. Or you can roll the balls in it as I did with my <a href=\"https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/rose-bliss-balls\/#recipe\">rose bliss balls.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Vanilla: <\/strong>Don\u2019t skip the vanilla. It rounds out all the flavors beautifully. Use good-quality store-bought or <a href=\"https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/homemade-vanilla-extract\/\">homemade vanilla extract<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Please see the recipe card below for full information about the ingredients and<\/em> quantities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-background is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"background-color:#eef3f4\">\n<h2 id=\"variations\"    class=\"wp-block-heading\">Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chocolate:<\/strong> You can dip the energy bites into dairy-free dark chocolate to make chickpea chocolate protein balls. I prefer 55% or 70% chocolate. You can use one with less cocoa content or even milk chocolate. Or mix in a handful of chopped chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Spice:<\/strong> Cardamom would make the chickpea protein balls wonderfully warm, like it did my <a href=\"https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/plum-cardamom-muffins\/\">plum cardamom muffins<\/a>. Cinnamon is equally delicious.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Nuts:<\/strong> Mix in chopped almonds, walnuts, or pumpkin seeds for extra texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Nut-Free<\/strong>: In case you\u2019re allergic to nuts or don\u2019t want them, switch to a seed butter like sunflower or even tahini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Extra protein:<\/strong> If you'd like even more protein, you can add a scoop of your favorite protein powder to this recipe for energy balls. You may need an extra peanut butter or a splash of plant milk to keep the mixture soft enough to roll.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1379\" src=\"https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Chickpea-Protein-Balls-6.jpg\" alt=\"A chocolate covered ball on a fork on a bowl of melted chocolate.\" class=\"wp-image-50177\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Chickpea-Protein-Balls-6.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Chickpea-Protein-Balls-6-261x300.jpg 261w, https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Chickpea-Protein-Balls-6-891x1024.jpg 891w, https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Chickpea-Protein-Balls-6-131x150.jpg 131w, https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Chickpea-Protein-Balls-6-768x883.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tashasartisanfoodscom-bt.b.tempurl.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Chickpea-Protein-Balls-6-150x172.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 728px) 100vw, 728px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 id=\"how-to-make-chickpea-protein-balls\"    class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Make Chickpea Protein Balls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Soak the pitted dates in warm water for 5-10 minutes.
