Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Balls
The flavors of peanut butter, coconut, and chocolate combine for the ultimate delicious healthy snack!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup coconut palm syrup or raw honey
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup your fave protein powder peanut butter cookie flavor is best!
- 1/3 cup flaxseed meal
- 1/3 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened
- 1/2 cup organic rolled oats
- 2 Tbsp. mini dark chocolate chips
- 1 Tbsp. chia seeds
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together peanut butter, coconut palm syrup and vanilla extract until well combined. Add in protein powder, coconut, flaxseed meal, oats, chocolate chips and chia seeds. Mix until well combined.
- Form the dough into 12 balls. (Depending on the peanut butter consistency, you may need to add a little bit more to help the dough stick.
- Eat them right away - you’ll want to, too!
Notes
If you don’t want to use protein powder, you may need to add a little more oats for the right consistency.
For the peanut butter, I use an all-natural drippy peanut butter made from only peanuts and salt. The natural kind with no additives has the best consistency for this recipe.
To store, place in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
