Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup almond butter
- 0.25 cup raw honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.5 cup paleo-friendly protein powder
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, chia seeds, cocoa powder, shredded coconut, protein powder, and sea salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
Step 2
Add the almond butter, raw honey, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or your hands, mix everything until a thick dough forms. If the mixture is too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time until the consistency allows the mixture to hold together when pressed.
Step 3
Scoop out approximately tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls using your hands. The mixture should yield about 12 balls.
Step 4
Once all the dough has been rolled into balls, you can roll them in extra shredded coconut if desired for a decorative touch.
Step 5
Place the protein balls in an airtight container and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes to firm up before eating.
Step 6
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze them for longer storage.
