These No Bake Matcha Cookie Dough Protein Bites are a delicious, easy-to-make snack packed with plant-based protein, healthy fats, and a subtle green tea flavor. Perfect for a quick energy boost, they require no baking and use wholesome ingredients like almond flour, oat flour, cashew butter, and matcha powder.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • ½ cup oat flour*
  • ¼ cup vanilla plant protein powder
  • ¼ cup ground flaxseed
  • 1 tbsp matcha green tea powder
  • ¼ tsp fine sea salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup cashew butter (or almond butter, avoid peanut butter)
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp water

Notes

  • *You can make your own oat flour by blending old-fashioned oats in a blender or Nutribullet until finely ground.
  • **If you don’t have ground flax or protein powder, substitute with more almond flour. Increase maple syrup if omitting protein powder as it adds sweetness. If you skip protein powder, add ½ tsp vanilla extract for flavor.
  • If matcha powder is unavailable, omit it and add mini chocolate chips for cookie dough bites.

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, oat flour, vanilla protein powder, ground flaxseed, matcha powder, and fine sea salt until well combined.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Add cashew butter, pure maple syrup, and water to the dry mix. Use your hands to knead the mixture thoroughly until a dough forms that sticks together easily without crumbling. If the mixture feels too dry or crumbly, gradually add more water until the correct consistency is reached.
  3. Shape and Store: Roll the dough mixture into small bite-sized balls. Place them in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • You can make oat flour by blending rolled oats to a fine powder.
  • If omitting protein powder and ground flax, increase almond flour and maple syrup to adjust sweetness and texture; add vanilla extract for extra flavor.
  • Substitute matcha powder with mini chocolate chips for a different flavor variation.
  • Store the bites refrigerated for up to one week or frozen for longer shelf life.
