Preparation Steps

• If you have a food processor, pulse the oats, protein powder and salt 3–4 times to combine and break the oats down slightly; otherwise whisk them together in a large bowl.
• Warm the peanut butter and honey together in a microwave-safe bowl in 20–30 second bursts, stirring between bursts, until they’re glossy and easily pourable. Stir in the vanilla extract and almond milk until smooth.
• Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir with a sturdy spatula or wooden spoon until everything is evenly moistened and the mixture holds together when pressed. If it feels too dry, add 1 tablespoon more almond milk.
• Fold in about three-quarters of the chopped Cadbury eggs, reserving the rest for finishing so you keep some larger candy bits for texture and appearance.
• Cover the bowl and chill the mixture in the fridge for 15 minutes to firm up slightly—this makes shaping much easier and prevents the candy from melting into the batter.
• Using a 1-tablespoon scoop (or wet hands), press and roll the mixture into 1-inch balls. As you form each ball, gently press a few reserved chopped Cadbury pieces into the outside of each bite so some candy shows on the surface.
• Place the bites on a tray or plate in a single layer and refrigerate for 45 minutes to fully set. Once firm, transfer to an airtight container and keep chilled.
