Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: rolled oats, almond flour, and vanilla protein powder. Whisk until uniform.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Gently fold in the blueberries into the creamy mixture, ensuring they don't get crushed.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until a cohesive dough forms.
  5. Scoop out portions of the dough and roll into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up the protein bites.
  7. After chilling, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
