Protein Ball Recipes- Choc Peanut Butter

Now I know we all love a good protein ball! There is unfortunately a lot out there that is packed of sugars and very high in fat! So I am excited to start sharing with you my series of protein ball recipes. I have created these which are a great post workout snack or something you can have when you want something sweet!

The first recipe I will be sharing is my all time favourite!

Ingredients

• 1/4 Cup Cacao
• 1/4 Cup Almond Meal
• 2 Scoops of Vanilla or Chocolate Protein (Whey Protein Isolate is best)
• 1 Handful Mixed Nuts + Seeds (e.g. chia seeds, crushed almonds etc)
• 6 Chopped Dates (if desired)
• 2 Tablespoon Natural Crunchy Peanut Butter
• 2 Tablespoons Desiccated Coconut
• Shredded Coconut (to roll ball into)

Method

1. In a large bowl add all dry ingredients; cacao powder, almond meal, protein powder, mixed seeds, dates, desiccated coconut and mix together
2. Add in peanut butter and 1 Tablespoon boiling water and mix together. Add extra boiling  water if needed to moisten mixture.
3. Scoop mix into hands and roll into balls
4. Roll balls into shredded coconut
5. Set in fridge for a couple of hours and your done!
