Ingredients
-
¼ cup vanilla or chocolate protein powder of choice
¼ cup of almond butter (drippy almond butter works best)
¼ cup shredded unsweetened coconut
-2 T pure maple syrup (honey or brown rice syrup would work too)
sea salt,
Stevia
Cinnamon
2 squares chocolate
Directions
1. In a small food processor, add the protein, almond butter, coconut and pulse until the ingredients are well incorporated
2. Add the cinnamon, sea salt, Stevia and sweetener (maple syrup or whatever you decide to use) and pulse again- the mixture will start to clump together.
3. Add in 1 square of extra dark chocolate (break it apart with your hands), or whatever mix-ins you’d like to use. Dried berries would be delicious, too. Pulse together one more time to finely chop the chocolate, and assess the situation to see if you’ll need more liquid sweetener for the balls to stick together.
4. Roll mixture into 8 balls with your hands.
Serving Size: Makes 8 balls
