I’ve been on the hunt the past few months for the perfect peanut butter protein bite recipe. I hadn’t found “the one” after many tries, so I decided I would create my own based off a few recipes that were close to what I was looking for. Every recipe either had a few too many oats, which I was trying to avoid to keep it lower in carbs this time around, or it had gobs of sweetener added. Defeats the purpose of a healthy snack bite in my opinon.
So, here it is. Super simple and quick to whip up. Peanut butter, almond flour, coconut flour, vanilla, collagen powder, chocolate chips, and dash a maple syrup. Mix it all together, roll into balls, pop in the freezer for 10 minutes, and devour these tasty little gems.
I could spend another five paragraphs telling you all about protein bites, swaps you could use, or what I did last summer, but I honestly too tired for that and would much rather you just go make these delicious bites and trust me when I say no. swaps. needed.
That’s it friends. Whip up a batch and let me know what you think!
