Protein ball ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup of almond flour: I find it to be the most affordable at Trader Joe’s where I live.
  • 1/3 cup of vegan vanilla protein powder: My favorite brand of vegan protein powder with great ingredients is the Ora Organic Vegan Protein Powder.
  • 1/4 cup of peanut butter: Or any nut butter you prefer such as almond, cashew, hazelnut, etc.
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup: Agave or honey (for non-vegans).
  • 1/4 cup soy milk: This adds more protein to this snack! If you really want to bump up the protein, then try adding the Silk ultra protein milk.
  • 1/4 cup of vegan chocolate chips: Dark chocolate is healthy and usually dairy-free.
  • Pinch of salt

Which Vegan Chocolate Protein Powder do I use?

I used to buy whatever protein powder was the cheapest, but then I realized not all of them have great ingredients. When I switch to a good protein powder it helped with my bloating, digestion, and skin.

This protein powder is made with clean ingredients, tastes great, and all while being relatively affordable:  Ora Organic Vegan Protein Powder (Vanilla).:

How to make peanut butter energy bites:

To a large bowl add 3/4 cup of almond flour, 1/3 cup of vanilla protein powder, 1/4 cup of peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, and 1/4 cup of soy milk. Mix around until a cookie dough batter forms.

If the batter is dry, add an additional 1-2 tablespoons of milk.

Then add 1/4 cup of chocolate chips and fold it into the dough.

Grab a tablespoon and take a scoop of dough and form it into a ball with your hands.

You can enjoy the protein balls immediately or store them in the fridge in an airtight container for up to one week.
