Measure and prep the dry ingredients by weighing rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, sea salt, and ground cinnamon into a large bowl and stirring to combine.
Combine the wet ingredients by stirring peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla in a separate bowl until smooth.
Pour the peanut butter mixture into the dry bowl and fold gently with a spatula until nearly uniform, then add mini chocolate chips and fold until evenly distributed.
Pinch a small amount of the mixture to test texture; if it’s too dry, add honey or water, and if too sticky, add oats until manageable.
Use a tablespoon scoop to portion the mixture, rolling them into firm balls.
Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Keep the balls at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for longer storage.

For a vegan version, use maple syrup and plant-based protein powder. Store in the fridge for up to 10 days.
