🍫🥜Protein Bites

Das right!  These spherical delights are packed with nutrients that will definitely give you a lil boost. I have been keeping these in the fridge for dessert. I must have something sweet to end every meal. That’s usually fruit or dark chocolate, but a healthy treat like this is not only guilt free but has added benefits. The ingredients are totally clean. The bites are easy to make and yielded about 20. I froze half. This is a fantastic dessert to serve guests. They’ll love not leaving your meal feeling like a beached whale. There is nothing wrong with indulgence AT ALL. But it’s nice to satisfy your sweet tooth without having to think about it.

You’ll need:
10 pitted medjool dates. If dates are hard then soak in very hot water for 15 minutes to soften.
1/3 cup flax seeds
1/3 cup coconut flour (fiber!!)
1/2 cup roasted, unsalted peanuts
2 scoops chocolate protein powder
1/4 cup chia seeds
3/4 natural chunky or smooth peanut butter
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp melted coconut oil

Combine all thoroughly in a food processor. Transfer to a bowl, meld the dough together. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes to firm. With wet hands, take a small chunk of dough and shape into balls. Can add a little more melted coconut oil if needed/ if the dough is too dry to work with, the 2 tbsp did it for me though. Keep in fridge for a week in an airtight container or freeze.
