Ingredients
(Serves 10 | ~30g each)
125g smooth peanut butter (½ cup)
50g almond flour (½ cup)
50g protein powder (½ cup)
2 tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut (1 tbsp in the mix + 1 tbsp for coating)
3 tbsp almond milk (adjust as needed for texture)
1 tsp Stevia, or to taste
¼ tsp sea salt
Method
1. Combine dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix the almond flour, protein powder, 1 tbsp shredded coconut, stevia, and salt.
2. Add peanut butter: Stir in the peanut butter until a thick mixture begins to form.
3. Adjust with almond milk: Add almond milk gradually, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture becomes sticky and dough-like. It should press together easily without crumbling.
4. Roll into balls: Use your hands to form 10 even balls (approx. 30g each).
5. Coat and chill: Roll in the remaining coconut, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
6. Store: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage.
