Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Balls (grain-free, vegan)
Servings 20 balls
These healthy no-bake chocolate peanut butter balls are loaded with protein and are vegan, grain-free, gluten-free and dairy-free.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons (224 grams) salted natural peanut butter the kind with just salt and nuts
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup (66 grams) finely ground blanched almond flour
- 3 tablespoons (22 grams) Dutch-process cocoa powder
- 6 tablespoons mini semi-sweet chocolate chips use dairy-free / vegan chocolate chips, if necessary
- pinch salt if your peanut butter is unsalted
Instructions
- Mix everything together and roll into balls by squeezing together tablespoon-sized balls of dough. The dough should be a little crumbly, but not so crumbly that you can't form balls easily. If it's too dry to squeeze into balls, add a little extra water.
- Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to one week. These also freeze well.
