Preparation Steps
  1. Line a plate or small baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, protein powder, almond flour, strawberry powder, and salt until evenly combined with no powder clumps visible.
  3. In a separate bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract until completely smooth and creamy, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir with a sturdy spoon or spatula until a sticky, cohesive dough forms.
  5. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out the dough and roll between your palms into 1 to 1.5 inch balls. Place each ball on the prepared parchment-lined plate.
  6. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up. Optional: roll in coconut flakes or extra strawberry powder right before serving.
